Abstract:
Mental health has become a growing concern in modern workplaces, demanding urgent attention from Human Resources (HR) departments. This study investigates HR’s role in promoting mental health awareness using a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data from 132 employee surveys and qualitative interviews with 12 HR professionals were analysed. Findings reveal that while awareness is high, stigma and limited program visibility hinder full engagement. The research offers actionable recommendations to embed.
