“The ‘echo pandemic’ of mental health is threatening to be more devastating than the physical implication of COVID-19,” said Lianne Clarke, practice lead and vice-president of wellness and disability solutions at Cowan Insurance, in the release. “As everyone is trying to navigate these difficult times, employers are looking for more mental-health support options for their employees.
