The Role of Gender
“Providing supportive working conditions for everyone requires mainstreaming gender into all aspects related to health, safety, wellbeing […] by recognizing that physical and psychosocial factors affect people differently depending on their gender identity.” Source: https://genderequalityblueprint.unglobalcompact.ca/
- Men are less likely to seek mental health services due to social norms that discourage help-seeking behaviour.
- Women face specific challenges related to gender-based violence and discrimination that impacts mental health and psychological safety.
Non-binary people or those from the 2SLGBTQI+ community face many social challenges related to acceptance, understanding, and belonging.
