Poor Mental Health CostS UK employers alone UP TO £51BN.
Organisations THAT invest in wellbeing AND mental health support for their employees will be able to reduce this cost significantly.
Poor mental health costs UK employers alone up to £51 billion each year. Organisations that invest in wellbeing and mental health support for their employees are able to reduce this cost significantly.
The most recent workplace mental health research from Deloitte (2024/25) reports that the cost to UK employers of poor mental health remains at approximately £51 billion per year. While this represents a slight reduction from the pandemic peak of £55 billion in 2021, it remains higher than pre-pandemic levels (£45 billion in 2019), demonstrating that workplace mental health pressures remain persistent and structural rather than temporary.
Presenteeism continues to be the largest contributor, where people work despite mental ill-health and are unable to perform at their full capacity. This is now estimated to cost UK employers around £24 billion annually, reflecting sustained productivity loss across sectors.
46% of working parents report being concerned about their children’s mental health, with this pressure costing UK employers around £8 billion per year through reduced performance, increased absenteeism, and parents leaving roles altogether.
Around 63% of employees report experiencing at least one characteristic of burnout, including emotional exhaustion, mental distance from work, and reduced professional efficacy.
Burnout among employees — such as feelings of exhaustion, disengagement from work, and declining performance — became more pronounced during the pandemic and has remained elevated into 2025, driven by workload intensity, role ambiguity, cost-of-living pressures, and reduced recovery time. Employer-led measures to improve mental wellbeing not only benefit employees themselves but also reduce organisational costs, including recruitment, absence, and turnover, while contributing to broader societal wellbeing.
We are a workplace wellbeing and mental health consultancy with a human and compassionate edge, bringing together leading experts in psychology, coaching, wellbeing, and mental health to deliver bespoke services to organisations of all sizes across the globe.
For every £1 invested in supporting the mental health and wellbeing of the workforce, employers receive an average return of approximately £4.70, through increased productivity, reduced absenteeism and presenteeism, improved retention, and stronger employee engagement.

Effective working policies, wellbeing and mental health support will improve workplace productivity and the quality of outputs.
BURNOUT
Deloitte’s 2024 research found an increase in some elements of burnout. 63% of respondents said they were exhibiting at least one sign of burnout, such as feeling of exhaustion, mental distance from their job, or a decline in performance at work, an increase from 51% in the previous survey. Given the implications of burnout on job performance and productivity, as well as employees’ overall wellbeing, there is a clear case for employers to recognise and address this issue.
Beingworks offers a range of options for organisations to help tackle the serious issue of burnout.
Beingworks’ expertise lies in being a catalyst for real culture change by helping to create inclusive, open and compassionate workplaces.
We focus on creating sustainable and impactful strategies, training and coaching that truly support employee mental health and wellbeing. We believe that to truly achieve results, organisations need their senior leadership to role model and sponsor initiatives, so a big part of what we do is closely work with senior leadership teams, as well as using participatory approaches to involve all stakeholders throughout the organisation. We draw on the strength of our expert team and trusted partnerships both in the UK and around the globe to deliver the highest quality wellbeing services and we take pride in doing the hard work to source the right partner provider if we don’t offer exactly what your organisation needs.
