More Workplace Support Needed For Mental Health

This year's theme for World Mental Health Day emphasizes ‘Mental Health At Work’, with the World Health Organisation (WHO) revealing that approximately 12 billion working days are lost to depression and anxiety each year.

We discuss the level of awareness and interventions needed with Anita Abu Bakar, President & Founder of the Mental Illness Awareness and Support Association Malaysia (MIASA).
