New research highlights mental health challenges for LGBTQ+ professionals. New study from myGwork - LGBTQ+ Business Community reveals that nearly half (44.6%) of LGBTQ+ professionals have experienced depression, with even higher rates among trans, non-binary, and bi+/plurisexual individuals. Anxiety is also a significant issue, affecting around a third of respondents. Despite these challenges, there are signs of progress. Over half (58%) of LGBTQ+ professionals are open about their sexual orientation at work, with this number rising to 80.5% among those employed by myGwork partner organizations. It’s clear that inclusive workplace cultures make a difference. However, three-quarters of respondents feel their workplaces lack adequate mental health support. Full study details https://ow.ly/lXJ450SIfmB Let’s work together to create supportive environments where everyone can thrive. 🌈 Tucson LGBT Chamber of Commerce, dba The Gaymber “Inclusive Business is Good Business!” #MentalHealth #LGBTQ #Inclusion #WorkplaceWellbeing #Diversity
