The WFH Crisis: The Impact of Remote Work on Women’s Mental Health-Oct 21

In honor of World Mental Health Day, Berlin Cameron and Luminary are hosting a virtual panel that will dive headfirst into how the disparate remote-work experience is negatively affecting women and their mental health.

Throughout the pandemic, the impact of working remotely has not been equally shared by men and women. More mothers have lost or left jobs, opted to work from home, and/or carry a heavier burden day-to-day. Men are being promoted while women are professionally regressing. Mothers are concerned about their job security, too: If they stay at home while fathers go into the office, are they at a disadvantage because they’re not seen or heard as much? What conversations and influential decisions are mothers missing out on because they're not in the conference rooms and walking the office halls?

Berlin Cameron and Kantar recently partnered on research to discover how remote work has affected the mental health of mothers and fathers differently. Our Mental Health Day panel will feature working mothers and mental health experts sharing their opinions on how women have been impacted by working from home and the toll it’s taken on their mental health. Tune in to hear from our panelists as they discuss:

• Why women and mothers feel less valued working from home

• How it is difficult to ask for help

• The biggest sources of stress and anxiety working from home
