Unity Bank has charged organisations and government agencies to pay greater attention to employee assistance programmes to minimise depression, anxiety and excessive stress in the workspace.


This, the lender, said would impact positively on job performance, mental and physical health and emotional wellbeing of their workforce.


Writing on its recent partnership of Chosen Vessels Empowerment Foundation (CVEF), the statement added that "the need to increase mental health awareness through a platform that is able to engender greater societal engagement and reach to relevant stakeholders in both public and private sectors informed the Bank’s commitment to promote seminar on Mental Health as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility".


Mental Health consultants at the seminar focused discussions on pre-emptive actions that can be adopted to stem the rising cases of mental disorder. One of the facilitators, Chief Consultant Psychiatrist with Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Lagos, Olufumilayo Akinola, identified the ‘main common mental disorders’ as ‘depression, anxiety and substance abuse’.


"There are effective and affordable treatments for most emotional disorders. Appropriate treatment can help improve the quality of life for most people experiencing mental disorders and their families", she advised.
