Mental Health in the Workplace is Becoming a Priority May 04, 2021 - Baystreet.ca Mental health matters a great deal in the workplace. Without it, companies could lose billions in lost productivity along the way. “According to the National Institute of Mental Health, one in five adults — or roughly 51.5 million women and men ages 18 and older — grappled with mental health issues in 2019, but fewer than half sought professional help. These silent struggles had a ripple effect on the greater economy, costing businesses an estimated $53 billion in lost productivity, accelerated turnover, and increased insurance premiums and disability claims,” as noted by Bentley University. Demand for companies to prioritize health and wellness in the workplace could be beneficial for Wellteq Digital Health Inc. (CSE:WTEQ)(OTC:WTEQF), Teladoc Health Inc. (NYSE:TDOC), Peloton Interactive (NASDAQ:PTON), 1Life Healthcare Inc. (NASDAQ:ONEM), and WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX:WELL)(OTC:WLYYF).Bentley University also noted that the pandemic created, “a perfect storm that’s soon to make landfall in the form of greater mental health afflictions in the workplace.” To prevent that, or help, may employees all around the world need for companies to prioritize wellness. Look at Wellteq Digital Health Inc. (CSE:WTEQ)(OTC:WTEQF) for example Wellteq Digital Health Inc. is a corporate wellness platform paid for by employers, insurers, and health providers. It also provides employers and employees with actionable health recommendations, ongoing support and coaching with medical professionals. The company just announced it shares are now trading in the United States of America under the symbol WTEQF. Wellteq’s shares currently trade on the Pink Open Market tier, with Wellteq having submitted its application to up list on the OTCQB® Venture Market. Wellteq also confirms that its shares are DTC (Depository Trust Company) eligible in the United States. DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading and enhance liquidity for the company's common shares. Securities eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through DTC are considered DTC eligible. DTC eligibility enables shares of Wellteq to be distributed, settled and serviced through DTC's automated processes, thereby taking advantage of the efficiencies created in the electronic method of clearing securities and the resulting cost benefits that DTC provides through accelerated settlement processes. Companies that are DTC eligible often experience higher trading volumes in their stock given the additional accessibility and availability of shares for trading. "Trading on the OTC markets in the United States is another milestone for Wellteq," said Scott Montgomery, CEO of Wellteq Digital Health. "We anticipate increased interest from U.S. investors as trading on OTC Markets Group Inc.’s ATS and DTC eligibility will make it easier to purchase our shares. This is another example of Wellteq moving forward on all fronts as it works to build out its growing digital health and wellness business."
