Marsh McLennan’s Healthy Societies Handbook evaluates ways businesses can encourage the health and resilience of societies across a broad spectrum of situations. As COVID-19 and climate change continue to evolve as prominent issues, the expectation is growing for businesses to take an active role in supporting their communities.
The handbook provides multiple articles and interviews examining trends, opportunities and challenges connected with well-being. One of these is How Insurers Can Help Improve Mental Health of Societies, which discusses a number of concepts, including how (re)insurers can take the lead in developing models to determine direct and indirect costs and risks related to mental health, such as productivity loss, attrition, workers compensation, liability risks and reputational damage.
Guy Carpenter’s broad industry relationships help clients address these multifaceted issues. Creative solutions, derived in consultation with other involved stakeholders, are key tools in mitigating these risks and helping to build overall healthier societies.
