The City Mental Health Alliance (CMHA), in partnership with Lloyds Banking Group, has launched the Mental Health and Race At Work Research Report, informed by insights from an extensive YouGov survey assessing the impact of mental health at work. It found:
- 45% of Black people have experienced racism at work in the UK
- 44 % of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic workers feel they need to change aspects of their behaviour to fit in
- Nearly two thirds of all workers (60%), believe that COVID-19 has had a negative impact on their mental health and wellbeing
For further information, including data that relates to cultural stigma and the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on mental health, and to find out more about the five strategic actions, please read the full report here.
