Hospitality Action’s mental health survey found Covid-19 was having an impact on people as only 38% of those surveyed said they feel positive about their future in the industry and more than 60% reported feeling stressed about the future.
The research also found three quarters of respondents felt like their mental health and wellbeing was a priority for the business they work for. The number of people who feel supported by their employer increased from 29% in 2018 to 38% in 2020.
