At @Microsoft, we’ve spent the past 6 months studying how the pandemic has impacted workplace #wellbeing around the world. Some findings.

Workers worldwide face burnout, but some are hit harder than others. For instance: 44% in Brazil are feeling more burned out compared to 31% in the US and 10% in Germany.

Contracting COVID-19 is the top stressor for Firstline Workers. Remote workers, meanwhile, cite a lack of separation between work and life.

Related: Nearly 30% of workers report their company has not provided the tech or equipment they need to effectively socially distance at work.

Meanwhile among remote workers, a lack of daily commute may hurt, not help, productivity as 1/3 struggle with #worklifebalance.

Meditation can help. @Headspace found that people who meditated with its meditation app for 30 days reported 32% less stress.

And 4 sessions with Headspace reduced burnout among healthcare workers by 14%.

With @Microsoft365, we’re investing in innovation to create safer workplaces + experiences for every worker. And features like the new Headspace integration in @MicrosoftTeams help remote workers rediscover balance to build resilience for the long haul. #MentalHealthAtWork
