Organizational Culture Frameworks Related to Mental Health: Implications and Applications for Occupational Therapy

Abstract

I think it starts with raising awareness among employers that poor management practices (work overload/treadmill syndrome, lack of direction, lack of recognition/rewards, etc.) can cause or exacerbate a mental health condition. I think many employers see it as strictly a medical event and don’t recognize the connection between how people are managed and the prevalence of mental health events.
