As an HR professional, it can be a trying and disappointing time when an employee files a complaint of harassment or bullying. You need to get into action mode immediately and follow the procedures that you have in place for these types of complaints.
It can be a real challenge to investigate a harassment or bullying complaint if you don’t have a company policy in place that outlines the necessary steps to take. Even if you feel that a complaint of this kind may have a negative impact on your company, implementing the proper procedures is necessary to safeguard your organization.

Regardless of age, race, gender or occupation, we're all susceptible to mental health issues. Some groups are statistically at greater risk of depression and suicide. People in the LGBTQ+ community, particularly young trans people, as well as members of the military and veterans, experience higher rates of depression and suicide compared with the general population.
Men, despite the advantages and privilege they tend to have, are statistically more likely to attempt suicide. In Australia, 75 percent of suicide attempts involve men. In the U.S. that number is 78 percent.

Mental health is the next frontier of the diversity and inclusion movement. A 2017 report by Deloitte found improving attitudes toward mental health generally and greater willingness to work with someone with a mental health condition. In fact, 91 percent of respondents said we need to adopt a more tolerant attitude about people with mental health conditions. As demand for mental health care continues to grow, prospective applicants are likely to seek out these benefits from companies.

Mental and behavioral health has been coming to the forefront as both an under-diagnosed and under-treated condition affecting employer workforces and health plans. The problem is so profound, yet so poorly understood to the point that many are coming up with theories about where these problems lie and what can be done to address them.
Interactive Health, a national wellness vendor, recently published a paper claiming that younger employees were more likely to suffer from mental and behavioral health issues. Is this really an issue for the young, or something that impacts the entire workforce equally?
