26、It seems clear that our working lives have a major influence on our mental health. We spend lots of time working hard, after all. A new study shows that if you’re feeling wretched as a result of your workplace, you’re certainly not alone.
People who work in unfriendly environments—identified by poor management practices, bullying and a failure to consider employees’ mental health—are three times more likely to suffer from depression (抑郁), says a research.
The year-long Australian population study discovered a link between working long hours and depression, and noted that men are more likely than women to become depressed if their workplace doesn’t care about their mental health.
Lead author Dr Amy Zadow said, “The study shows that companies that fail to reward or acknowledge (承认) their employees for hard work and press unreasonable demands on workers are placing their employees at a much greater risk of depression.”
The risks of these kinds of working environments go beyond the individual (个体). If employees are unhappy, mistreated or burnt out, they can’t focus on their tasks and will therefore be less productive. It’s clear that bosses need to care more about workers’ mental health—especially following the great stresses during the COVID-19 outbreak.
“Many of us dislike our work not because it is not proper work for us, but because of the politics we face every day in our work environment. If we can agree some shifts or if we could have a role in somehow changing the politics, we might feel happier,” says psychotherapist (精神治疗医师) Serge Behrens. “Depression affects over 260 million people worldwide and causes many people to take their own lives. Therefore, it is important that companies or organizations provide the employees with a homely and happy working atmosphere.”

A.People should take up proper work.
B.Employees’ work environment should be improved.

【4】Who is the text most probably written for?
