In 2009, employees didn’t have to struggle in silence in the workplace.

In 2022, the situation for workplace mental health is completely awful.

Don’t believe it?

Here is a screenshot of Google Trends for the last 18 years.

Thus, there is a rise in the adoption of mental health risk assessment software or health improvement solutions in the workplace.

For instance,

Calgary-based workforce mental health platform Headversity has acquired Nebraska-based HIS (Health Improvement solutions) in order to improve the workforce upskill program in Canada, the USA, and beyond.

Headversity holds a solid vision as a workplace mental health platform

Dr. Ryan Todd founded Headversity in 2017. It was an experience that led him to take a big step in improving the mental health of the people.

As a psychiatry practitioner, Todd noticed that due to our old-age healthcare ecosystem, patients have to wait for 3 to 6 or sometimes 9 months for mental health risk assessment.

So, he made a strong pledge to eliminate the waitlist. 

And this is where the name comes from – “Ahead of Adversity!”

It officially launched in 2019 and now it is providing medical health risk assessment programs to employees in over 22 countries.

The platform helps the organization or enterprise to –

• Evaluate employee health

• Enhance wellbeing

• Boost productivity and presenteeism

• Improve other healthcare areas

Shell, OMERS, First Group America, and ATB are some of the top clients of its workforce upskilling software.

What is included in the mental health risk assessment software?

Headveristy’s platform supports the workforce to build core skills and improve mental health in the workplace hassle-free by offering features such as –

• Solo training: Personalized training tools for employees to sustain and improve their mental health

• Team training: 360-degree training for the entire team

• Deep insights and analytics: Analyze the opportunities to speed up the mental well-being program

It comes up with the 5 steps mental health risk assessment solution

Headversity sells an experience. Not just a solution.

Because it also gives a dedicated manager in order to help the organization to achieve its goals.

Enterprises can easily launch, set, and activate the mental health risk assessment solution in their ecosystem.

Step-1: Launch the program

Step-2: Run engagement campaigns

Step-3: Integrated messaging for a communication 

Step-4: A support channel to decode the employees' queries

Step-5: Report and analytics to analyze the progress

A masterstroke of acquiring Healthcare Improvement Solution (HIS) 

The mission of HIS is to enrich the health of communities and organizations.

It offers a health risk assessment methodology and WBI (Well-Being Index) in order to help a variety of industries to identify the risk factors associated with the health and productivity of their employees.

HIS feature product offers –

• Professional Training Series 

• CoachingPoints Software 

• CalcuL8 Health & Productivity Analysis Tool 

• ProductivityPlus Survey 

• Resilience Measurement

Acquisition of HIS will help the Headversity to –

• Implement the health risk assessment methodology in its workforce mental health platform

• Expand their reach into the broader market of the USA

• Helps organizations to build and provide more reliable and effective workforce mental health programs

However, it will take almost 9 months to completely implement the Healthcare Improvement Solutions into the workforce training software.
