AB  - Occupational  mental  health  is  increasingly  recognized  as  an  important  focus  of  an  effective  occupational  health  and  safety  program.  Unaddressed  mental  health  issues,  including  substance  use  disorders,  are  significant  occupational  health  problems  and  causes  of  considerable  economic  loss.  Both  diagnosed  and  undiagnosed  psychiatric  disorders  and  substance  use  disorders  can  contribute  to  poor  performance  or  quality  of  work,  absenteeism,  decreased  function  while  in  the  workplace  (ie,  presenteeism),  strain  in  work  relationships,  and  potential  safety  issues  (including  fatalities).  Rates  of  absenteeism  and  presenteeism  are  higher  for  mental  health  disorders  than  other  chronic  medical  conditions,  and  stress  and  anxiety  account  for  more  work  absences  than  physical  injuries  or  illnesses.
