The return on investment for programs that identify and treat employee depression is now clearer after a study published yesterday in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study showed that lower costs overall was likely for the employer that has established such programs. The savings come from improved productivity and reduced absenteeism, both of which we have known for a while are the costly workplace outcomes from depressed workers. The study found that telephone psychotherapy even works!
 
OK you don’t have the power to establish a program within your project, but if you perceive your worker productivity is being eaten from the inside out by depression, then you should be a supporter of depression treatment programs in your company. Hey, in today’s project environments, you may end up making the first call!
