LONDON: Nearly eight out of 10 corporate executives have experienced poor mental health during the coronavirus crisis, prompting a number of them to re-evaluate and improve work-life balance, a survey showed on Monday .
Many top company officials in France and Egypt were most likely to have recalibrated their lives after experiencing the pandemic blues, followed by those in the United Arab Emirates, the United States and Britain, according to a survey of about 2,000 high net-worth individuals by health insurer Bupa Global.
"With the pandemic impacting mental health so heavily, it's really important that business leaders work to address any issues both personally and at their organisations," Bupa's medical director Luke James said.The survey also found that less than a third of the participants intend to keep working from home primarily, and a quarter of them planned to trim working hours.
"Anyone who has been working from home around young children or trying to juggle work and home-schooling will know it can be challenging," Bupa Managing Director Sheldon Kenton said. As the line between work and personal space blurs, about a fifth of the high net-worth individuals surveyed said they would work remotely from their holiday homes as travel and face-to-face meetings decline.
