Did you know that in Mexico there is a specific standard to protect the mental health of workers? NOM-035-STPS-2018 is a regulation that establishes the requirements to identify, analyze and prevent psychosocial risk factors in workplaces.
Its main objective is to promote a favorable work environment and prevent risks such as stress, violence, lack of control over work, lack of social support and lack of clarity in the roles and responsibilities of employees. All these factors can negatively affect the health, safety and well-being of workers.
By implementing NOM-035, companies commit to guaranteeing a safe and healthy work environment for their personnel. This implies taking preventive and corrective measures to identify and mitigate psychosocial risks, thus promoting the physical and mental well-being of employees.
As employers, it is your duty to comply with this standard and ensure the comprehensive care of your work teams. Investing in employee mental health is not only a legal obligation, but also a smart strategy to increase productivity, retain talent and build a positive organizational culture.
Complying with NOM-035 is a crucial step in creating a healthy and motivating work environment! Protect your workers and build successful and sustainable companies.
