The report points to a set of observable indicators that managers can be trained to recognize: behavioural changes, difficulty concentrating, persistent fatigue, loss of appetite, musculoskeletal or chest pain, dizziness, restlessness, nervous twitches, and irritability. Given that self-reporting cannot be relied upon, the report places significant weight on equipping line managers to identify and respond to these signs. When a concern is identified, the recommended approach is a private conversation focused on specific observations rather than broad characterizations, with space given for the employee to respond. Treatment options referenced include professional therapy, antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication, and supplementary approaches such as yoga, meditation, tai chi, and aromatherapy.
