Improving mental wellbeing in market research

With the majority of market researchers experiencing struggles with their mental wellbeing in the past year, Opinium Research and the Market Research Society (MRS) recently hosted a joint event to explore the issue and debate how employers can address it.

Wellbeing-RL

The discussion follows research conducted by Opinium, supported by MRS, which found that 85% of market researchers report that they have struggled with their mental wellbeing in the past year, and 77% say this has affected their work.

Jane Bainbridge, head of editorial at Impact and Research Live, chaired a panel with Sophie Holland, research executive at Opinium, Dane Krambergar, head of workplace wellbeing services at Mind, Jennifer Roberton, managing director, Respondi, and Rebecca Ormond, inclusive workplace leader at PwC.

A video of the event can be found on the MRS website.
