The transition of a relationship separation through the lens of the workplace
Over half the adult population is married, but unfortunately, 42% marriages end in divorce. How many people in your your company may be facing separation, divorce or a co-parenting transition?
​
The Positive Parenting Alliance found that 95% of employees’ mental health was negatively impacted by the ending of a significant relationship
As a company, I ask you to consider the impact of the latest research and ask in which ways are you currently supporting your employees...
90% of employees reported that relationship breakdown impacted their ability to do their job. A staggering 75% admitted to being less effective in their work and 40% had to take time away from work, moreover, 10% felt they had to give up their job completely.
​
What impact is this having on your company?

What do these stats mean for your company?
7.6% of sickness absence is attributed to stress, depression, and anxiety annually in the UK. This equates to 14.3 million lost working days per year. (1)
​
Analysis by Deloitte, found that poor mental health costs UK employers up to £45 billion each year. (2)
For every £1 spent by employers on mental health interventions they’ll get £5 back in reduced absence, presenteeism and staff turnover. (3)
​
A company with as few as 100 employees, on an average salary of £25,000, can lose almost £250,000 a year due to employees facing separation, divorce or transitioning into a co-parenting relationship. (2)
