Mental health at work: An analysis of employees and mentalPORT data

Nov 2025

The discussion about mental health at work has become enormously important in recent years. In this regard, mental health data is a valuable resource for gaining insights into the needs of employees. A close analysis of this data, particularly in connection with Generation Z, provides interesting insights into how companies can improve the work environment.

The impact of mentalPORT data

mentalport, an innovative platform for promoting mental health in the workplace, plays a central role in collecting data on employee well-being. The collected mental health data provides deep insights into the challenges and needs of employees and how companies can take targeted measures to improve their working environment.

Employees in focus

To understand the meaning of this data, let's first look at the employees themselves. Today's workforce, particularly Generation Z, is experiencing increasing complexity and challenges in the modern working world. The requirements for flexibility, rapid adjustment and the balance between work and life are particularly relevant for this generation.

Statistics on the mental health of employees

The effects of workload, uncertainty, and constant pressure to be available are clearly visible in the mentalPORT data. According to the data collected, 45% of the employees surveyed have difficulty separating work and personal life. This percentage rises to 60% among Generation Z, which indicates an increased challenge in this age group.

Another alarming factor is that 35% of employees say they are frequently affected by exhaustion. This phenomenon particularly affects Generation Z, with 50% of this age group reporting that they are frequently affected by exhaustion. These figures underline the urgency to take targeted measures to promote mental health in the workplace.

Identify challenges and opportunities

The data also shows that 25% of employees have difficulty dealing effectively with stress. This makes it clear that companies should pay attention not only to the physical but also to the emotional resilience of their teams. It is critical that organizations recognize the challenges and seize opportunities to make positive change.

mentalport's role in the solution

mentalport helps to overcome these challenges by providing personalized solutions and resources. The platform enables companies not only to take preventive measures, but also to respond to individual needs. Through regular data collection and analysis, companies can proactively respond to changes and create a supportive work environment.

Conclusion: Data-based approaches for promoting mental health

The analysis of mental health data provides comprehensive insight into the needs of employees. With a clear understanding of the challenges, companies can implement personalized and effective measures to promote mental health using platforms such as mentalport. The future of the working world requires data-based approaches to create a supportive environment for all employees.
