An app with a rich library of exclusive bite-sized tools and interventions, that helps teams to build the skills they need to manage stress and become more resilient:
1 in 5 employees experience moderate to high levels of stress. With the demand for mental health services expected to exceed supply by up to 15,600 psychiatrists by 2025, employers across the globe are recognising the urgent need for workplace wellbeing and mental health solutions.
Koa Health’s diverse, cross-functional researchers, data scientists, clinicians and engineers collaborate with leading institutions to build evidence-based solutions that meet users’ mental health needs. One such example is their Koa Foundations mental health and wellbeing app.
Ranked by ORCHA as a leading app for stress and anxiety, the Koa Foundations mental health and wellbeing app helps employees to:
Ramp up resilience
Everyday stress can impact quality of life and productivity. The Koa Foundations app delivers personalised content suggestions based on the areas that employees would like to work on, to handle everyday stress more effectively through tried and tested exercises.
Keep calm
Life inside and outside of the workplace can become hectic, especially during challenging times. The app has built in activities, curated by experts, to help employees relax and disconnect, to keep calm, gain control of their sleep, and to practice mindfulness.
Dig deeper
Understanding personal causes of stress can help employees make positive changes to their behaviours. With the Koa Health mental health and wellbeing app, employees are motivated to keep track of what provokes stress, challenge their thoughts and practice thoughtful communication.
Why companies are choosing the Koa Health mental health and wellbeing app as a way to support their people:
It’s fair to say that employee wellbeing has never been so widely understood and respected. Historically reserved for forward-thinking companies with big budgets, in a digital-first world, technology has made mental health and wellbeing tools more accessible and affordable than ever.
The Koa Foundations mental health and wellbeing app enables employers to make genuine, positive commitments to support their people who are experiencing mental health issues, stress and anxiety. Short, evidence-based audio, video, article and slide activities and exercises can help employees work with their thoughts, relax and disconnect, improve sleep and even deal with Covid-19 related stress.
From better staff retention and increased employee engagement, commitment and productivity, to a more resilient, happier and healthier workforce, investing in staff wellbeing and bringing mental health to the forefront of the conversation is a must in today’s challenging world.
