From a technical point of view, there is no direct comparison of performance with conventional GBU offerings, as mentalport dissolves the line between analysis and implementation. While traditional methods only cover the survey phase, our infrastructure integrates downstream occupational safety measures directly into the workflow.

By combining legally compliant GBU Psyche (according to GDA Psyche work program) and clinically validated intervention, you ensure the organizational stability of your teams while maintaining maximum capital efficiency & process automation.

What makes mentalport different from other providers?

When is this option worthwhile?

Mental Wellbeing Business Case: The biggest hidden cost factor in companies

Psychological stress costs companies more than they think. Click through the 5 biggest cost factors and find out where your company is already losing money today.

1. Absenteeism

Absences due to psychological stress are constantly increasing. Mental illnesses currently result in an average of 342 sick days per 100 employees per year in Germany.

Case duration of mental illnesses: Ø 33—37 days with average costs per absenteeism of around 400€.

Costs: ~1.500 € per employee/year

Continued payment costs weigh on companies' liquidity by an average of 1.5-2% of total turnover. With mental health as the third most common reason for failure, it is the biggest cash burden.

2. Presentism
Present but not efficient: Stress, exhaustion and overwork as well as illness reduce productivity by a factor of 2-3 to absenteeism.

👉 Ø 15-20 days of loss of productivity per employee in a conservative approach.

Costs: ~4.000 € per employee/year
Source: Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA, 2022), Deloitte UK, Mental Health Report 2023
3. Fluctuation
Unprocessed burdens lead to internal dismissal and job changes. 40% of voluntary layoffs are psychologically related and 50% of knowledge workers have already resigned internally (quiet quitting).

👉 Replacement and training costs can amount to up to 200% of salary.

Costs: ~2,400 € per employee/year

4. Culture & Innovation

Psychological uncertainty acts as an invisible brake: less creativity, less innovative power, more conflicts.

👉 Efficiency losses due to weaker collaboration.

Costs: ~700 € per employee/year

5. Compliance & ESG

Health insurance & pension insurance are recording increasing spending on rehab & early retirement. Mental illnesses are also the most common cause of disability pensions.

Failure to take measures entails risks: legal consequences, reputational damage and failed ESG standards. D&O insurance companies are also increasingly considering mental health as a risk indicator.

Compliance & average recourse costs as well as ESG opportunity costs are included.

Costs: ~500 € per employee/year

Around 9,000€ per employee and year: The biggest undetected cost block in the company. Do you want to know exactly what the Mental Wellbeing business case looks like in your company? Start the validated ROI check now:
