Mental health problems at work cost Portuguese companies 13.3 billion euros per year
A new report from the Portuguese Psychologists' Association (OPP) estimates that stress and psychological health issues at work cost companies 13.3 billion euros annually in lost productivity, more than quadrupling the 2020 estimate of 3.2 billion. This includes both absenteeism and 'presenteeism,' where employees are physically present but working at reduced capacity; the latter accounts for two-thirds of the total cost. On average, the report estimates each worker loses 40.5 days of productivity per year due to these issues.
