Abstract
Fully 73% of Generation Z employees and 74% of millennial employees have utilized mental health benefits offered by their employers, while 58% of Generation X employees and 49% of baby boomer employees have used the benefits, the news release service, Business Wire, reported on March 6. Securian Financial, a leading provider of group life and supplemental health insurance benefits, conducted a survey of 2,500 employees of American organizations between Aug. 30 and Sept. 9, 2022. Among the findings, Gen Z, the youngest generation of professionals who are still early in their careers or just entering the workforce, expect access to mental health services and any historical barriers to access to be fixed already. Leveraging mental wellness resources is normalized for this generation. Millennials were raised to believe mental health challenges are problematic but fixable. They're inclined to have the attitude of rolling up their sleeves and getting to work. Gen X recognizes access to mental health services can be problematic but just tries to get through it. Baby boomers, the oldest generation with representation still in the workforce, were taught to tough it out and not talk about mental health challenges.
