More than 80% of people globally say their employer and their child's school or
university should do more to address mental health and wellbeing 

HOBOKEN, N.J., June 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As the Great Resignation continues
to disrupt the global economy, Pearson, the world's leading learning company,
today released new public opinion research showing that people around the world
are prioritizing mental health and wellbeing in career and education choices. 

Notably, the Pearson Global Learner Survey, a poll of 5,000 people in five
countries, found: 

 * 85% expect their employers to address the mental health and wellbeing of
   employees, with 32% saying their employers have not taken any action to
   address employees' mental health and wellbeing.
 * Nearly all respondents believe accessible mental health services in school
   are critical, but there's a disconnect. Globally, 92% of parents think
   schools should provide free mental health services to students and staff, but
   only 26% of schools report these resources are available at their child's
   school.

When it comes to education on how to improve mental health, expectations of
schools and universities are high, too. 

 * 61% of people globally believe children should be introduced to wellness and
   mental health awareness in primary or middle school.
 * And 91% of parents agree schools should play a bigger role in training people
   to solve today's mental health issues.

"Work and school are the places where we spend the most time, outside our family
life. Employees and families are demanding that employers and schools work
harder to address the mental health crisis that has been exacerbated over the
last two and a half years," said Morgan Champion, school counseling lead,
Pearson Virtual Schools. "As Covid becomes endemic and we become accustomed to
new ways of working and learning, organizations will need to incorporate
wellness and wellbeing into their offerings in strategic and innovative ways to
stay competitive and better serve their communities and constituents."

Among other findings of the survey: 

With the tightest talent market in recent history, job seekers are prioritizing
mental health resources as they reevaluate their current or potential new jobs.
 

 * Around the world, 90% of people think more highly of employers that actively
   address employee mental health and wellbeing, and 86% say mental health and
   wellness benefits are an important part of their decision on whether to
   pursue a new job.

And mental health support is not just a forefront topic in the workplace; it's
also important in schools. When making choices about their children's education,
mental health services matter to parents. 

 * More than 90% of parents regard mental health and wellbeing services as
   important elements when considering higher education institutions for
   themselves or their children.
 * And the same number are more inclined to consider colleges or universities
   who care about the mental health of their students.

The report also found that nearly 80% of respondents have specific and tangible
requests of both corporations and educational institutions to help improve
mental health: a set amount of mental health days off from work and school, free
mental health services, and access to physical fitness activities and wellness
resources, including helpline numbers, research, clinic locations, and online
therapy options.

About the Global Learner Survey  
This poll was conducted by Morning Consult from April 13 to April 18, 2022,
among a total sample of 5,008 respondents between the ages of 16 to 70 years old
in the United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, India, and China. The interviews
were conducted online. Results are representative of the online population with
a margin of error of plus and minus three percentage points.

Now in its fourth year, Pearson's Global Learner Survey is the leading poll of
learners on education issues in the world, offering a deeper understanding of
trends in education and providing key data to help further discussions on many
important issues.
