Remote work increases mental health risks (e.g., isolation), but in regions like Japan or India, mental illness is stigmatized—employees may avoid seeking help. Multinational firms offering Western-style mental health apps (e.g., therapy via video call) may see low adoption. How are firms adapting? Do they partner with local mental health providers who understand cultural norms, or offer support indirectly (e.g., stress management workshops)? I need data on support utilization rates, cultural adaptation strategies, and how firms are measuring their impact on employee well-being.
