PDF version New! Access to Mental Health Support for your clients at no additional cost
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on individuals and businesses. At RBC Insurance®, we’re doing all we can to help you and your clients get through this crisis and have responded in a number of ways to help lessen the impact of COVID-19.
With prolonged physical distancing and limited social interaction across Canada, various sources have reported a decline in the mental health of Canadians. Understandably, Canadians are feeling the impact of social distancing and isolation, anxiety created by the fear of getting sick, or financial stress due to the economic impact of the pandemic. Experts advise that these impacts are expected to last beyond the lifting of state of emergency restrictions.
A recent survey by Stats Canada showed that 52% of participants indicated that their mental health was either "somewhat worse" or "much worse” since physical distancing measures were implemented.
With statistics like this in mind, we at RBC Insurance are pleased to announce additional mental health programs, at no additional cost, to support both employers and their employees with some of the challenges they are facing as a result of COVID-19.
