Abstract
[...]the execution of policies is variable and often suboptimal. [...]low- and middle-income countries where one has the largest population in working age groups, continue to lag behind in conducting or identifying suitable interventions, and often do not have adequate policies in place to prevent discrimination against employees with mental disorders [7]. [...]organizations need to have guidelines about working hours based on good industrial practices and take measures to enforce these routinely. While extant research has tended to focus on alleviation of symptoms and risk factors associated with workplace-related mental disorders, less emphasis has been placed on gathering evidence on how mental disorders affect performance and absenteeism and how interventions have resulted in improvement of work performance and absenteeism[3]. [...]more research is needed to gather evidence on the cost-effectiveness of interventions and the cost of mental disorder-related loss of productivity on the larger community. [...]any additional budgetary allocations or training required to implement the policies, need to be made available.
