Understanding Mental Well-being: The Kessler K10 Questionnaire

What is the Kessler K10 Questionnaire and Why Take It?


The Kessler K10 is a widely recognised and validated mental health screening tool. Developed by renowned researchers, its primary aim is to identify individuals who may be experiencing symptoms of psychological distress, including anxiety and depression.

The questionnaire consists of ten questions, each carefully crafted to gauge various aspects of emotional well-being over the past four weeks.

It offers:-

1. Early Identification of Mental Health Concerns:

The Kessler K10 helps in early identification of potential mental health concerns, allowing for timely intervention and support.

2. Holistic Health Assessment:

Our commitment to holistic health extends beyond physical well-being to encompass mental health. The K10 adds a valuable dimension to our health assessments.

3. Tailored Support:

Understanding an individual's mental health status enables us to offer tailored support and resources, contributing to a healthier and more resilient workforce.
