Emotions are a critical component of employee mental health and wellbeing, yet organizations are largely unaware of how to address and navigate emotions and symptoms of trauma in the workplace. A proactive approach to fostering a healthy emotional culture and becoming trauma-informed demonstrates the organization’s commitment to supporting wellbeing and building trust with employees. A failure to embed emotionally healthy and trauma-informed practices risks the psychological safety and wellbeing of employees across the organization, ultimately impacting how employees perform, how engaged and creative they are, and their commitment to the organization.
