Give Your Global Team a Space for Their Mental Health

In the age of remote work, it’s become clear that prioritizing employee well-being is essential. Mental health benefits are no longer a luxury but a necessity. Deel is proud to announce the launch of our new global mental health benefit, powered by Talkspace, to support our clients and their employees worldwide.

In a competitive job market, mental health benefits not only improve performance but also help attract and retain top talent. Offering this type of support shows employees that their well-being is valued and that your company recognizes the challenges of balancing work and life, especially for remote teams working across time zones.

Talkspace is now available for EOR employees in over 80 countries. Employees are matched with a licensed therapist within 2 days and can communicate 24/7 through text, voice, or video messages or schedule live sessions based on their plan. Talkspace therapists engage 5 days a week, and employees can switch providers anytime for personalized care.

Why mental health benefits matter for remote employees

Offering mental health support is both a strategic and socially responsible decision. Prioritizing mental well-being leads to a range of business advantages, including:

• Boosted employee engagement and productivity: Supported employees are more engaged, motivated, and effective at managing stress, resulting in better overall performance.
• Attracting and retaining top talent: Mental health benefits have become a key differentiator in today's job market. Forward-thinking companies prioritizing well-being are more appealing to candidates and experience lower employee turnover, saving costs on recruitment and training.
• Improved company reputation: Providing mental health benefits enhances your company's image as a supportive, responsible employer. This attracts talent and appeals to customers, investors, and partners who value corporate social responsibility.
