URAC joins leaders to announce the Mental Health at Work Index

URAC joins leaders to announce the Mental Health at Work Index, the first-of-its-kind comprehensive strategy to measure, improve and innovate workplace mental health.

URAC is a partner in the Founding Corporate Council to support the development and global adoption of the Index. URAC joins AXA, Aon, Bank of America, Business Group on Health, Jardine Matheson, MINDSET Care Limited (Singapore), MINDSET Limited (Hong Kong), LifeWork and Prudential. Informed by science and guided by real-world experience, The Mental Health at Work Index™ takes the guesswork out of mental health at work, allowing organizations around the world to measure, improve and innovate their workplace mental health efforts.

October 5, 2022, Washington, DC – A Founding Corporate Council of eight organizations have come together to help drive the development and adoption of the Mental Health at Work Index™ to recognize the importance of providing a standardized tool to help organizations of all sizes and across industries globally invest in sustainable and best-practice workplace mental health programs. These founding members contribute their expertise and perspectives to ensure the practical value of the Index.

The founding members include:

  • AXA, Asia & Africa, Founding Principal Partner
  • Aon
  • Bank of America
  • Business Group on Health
  • Jardine Matheson, MINDSET Care Limited (Singapore) and MINDSET Limited (Hong Kong)
  • LifeWorks
  • Prudential
  • URAC

The Mental Health at Work Index will launch in early 2023 after the current beta testing phase is complete.

By completing The Mental Health at Work Index, organizations can benchmark their programs and services and develop high-quality services and offerings that will translate into real impact. The Index is aligned with global guidance and standards, including International Organization for Standardization, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board and the recently released World Health Organization guidelines. It guides leaders through a library of resources and practical evidence-based recommendations that provide them with verified data to inform strategic decision making about mental health programs so that they can make the choices for their organizations that will make a significant difference in the mental health of their workforce.

The Mental Health at Work Index “Three Ps Framework” assesses workforce mental health programs across the continuum of Protection, Promotion and Provision of care. The assessment dives deep into 10 organizational categories: mental health strategy, leadership, workforce engagement, communication, organizational culture, mental health training, work environment, mental health benefits, employment practices and monitoring and reporting.

Shawn Griffin, MD, President and CEO of URAC, said “We know that companies need to focus on mental health strategies to support their employees; the current workforce demands it. By partnering with other leaders in this space, URAC can offer our expertise as a trusted independent, third-party arbiter of health care quality. The Mental Health at Work Index allows organizations to evaluate their success in supporting the mental wellness of their employees. We’re proud to be a founding partner of One Mind at Work collaborating with One Mind, Columbia University Mental Health + Work Design Lab, and Ethisphere to equip companies with easy-to-access resources and practical recommendations to support mental health in the workplace in impactful, measurable ways.”

On October 3rd, Bloomberg featured The Mental Health at Work Index in an article, Bank of America-Backed Scorecard Lets Companies Assess Workplace Mental Health.
