Workplace mental wellness for employees: common questions
Frequently asked questions
Will my employer see my results?
No. Your answers and scores are private to you. Your employer only receives anonymised, combined reporting, never anything that identifies you.
What does the screening check?
Three short questionnaires: the PHQ-9 for low mood and depression, the GAD-7 for worry and anxiety, and the PSS-4 for how stressed you have felt over the last month.
What happens after I get my score?
Each score comes with a clear next step, from simple self-care to speaking with a counsellor or mental health professional, whom a care navigator can connect you with privately.
Is burnout a real thing?
Yes. The World Health Organization recognises burnout as an occupational phenomenon: exhaustion, feeling distant from your work and getting less done, caused by long-term workplace stress.
Signs you might need support
Feeling exhausted most days, dreading work, trouble sleeping or switching off, irritability, low mood or worry that lasts more than two weeks.
What if I'm struggling right now?
Any answer about self-harm brings up urgent support straight away. You can call Befrienders Kenya on +254 722 178 177 or the Kenya Red Cross toll-free line 1199, any time you need to talk.
My employer doesn't offer this. Can I still use it?
Yes. Mental health screening costs KES 100 on its own, or is included in the Plus package (KES 500) with care navigation.
