Brain Health Best Practice Score: How Do Organizations Measure Up?

Businesses and institutions rely on brain power to make important decisions, to solve critical challenges, and to think creatively and analytically.Employees also report that their work plays a major role in their brain health.However, most employees are reporting that work negatively impacts their brain, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD) New Approaches to Economic Challenges initiative estimates that impaired brain health is costing the global economy as much as $8.5 trillion a year in lost productivity.This calls attention to the need for organizations to promote a healthy brain culture in their workforce, involving the implementation of programs and policies and creating an environment that supports brain health and function [1][2][3][4].
