HR, F&B, engineering sectors report the least stigma of talking about mental health at work Details Published: 01 February 2021
On the contrary, workers from real estate, insurance, legal and skilled labour sectors ranked highest among the industries that reported feeling uncomfortable talking to their manager or coworkers about their mental health.
In a survey of 2,000 American workers to better understand the state of mental health in the workplace, it was found that employees in HR, F&B (restaurants), engineering, IT and non-profit industries reported the least stigma of talking about mental health at work.

Physicists have spent decades uncovering similarities in how disordered materials deform. Now they are trying to apply these results to the design of new materials.

Karin Dahmen loves noise. A theoretical physicist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, she has spent most of her career studying the “crackling noise” emitted by different materials when they deform. The noise emitted when a piece of paper is crumpled, for example, is a series of discrete snaps that vary in loudness. If you were to plot the number of snaps for each loudnes
