Three out of five millennials feel anxious or stressed all the time: study

Singapore millennials were found to be more stressed than the global average.

Almost three out of five millennials or 45% are feeling stressed or anxious all the time, according to Deloitte’s 2021 Millennial and Gen Z Survey.

This is higher than the global average of 41%.

65% said they have not spoken openly about feeling more stressed or anxious to their employers since the pandemic started.

On the other hand, 62% of those surveyed said they strongly agreed that their current employers have taken action to support their mental well-being during this time.

Approximately three out of five, or 60%,  agreed that their companies are actively making plans and preparing policies to support employees with their post pandemic mental and physical health.

But 45% of millennials said that worries about their longer-term financial future have contributed the most to their feelings of anxiety or stress.

Meanwhile, Singapore Gen Z workers are less stressed, with only 40% saying they feel anxious or stressed all the time. This is lower than the global average of 46%.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
