  6. Overview of DuPont 70,000 employees in 70+ countries $38 billion annual sales Core values are key drivers of culture Established first corporate substance abuse program in the world in 1942 http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  7. DuPont Core Values Two of DuPont’s core values are the foundation for the ICU Program: Health and Safety Respect for People Highest Ethical Standards Environmental Stewardship http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  8. Motivation for This Campaign—Business Drivers Recognition of increasing stress in global organization Increase in core value violations Focus on emotional health and wellness by senior leaders conceptualized by the term “emotional ergonomics,” i.e., measuring and managing the emotional environment at work Global challenges, e.g., Arab Spring, European financial crisis, Hurricane Sandy, Sandy Hook, etc. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  9. Motivation for This Campaign—Human Resource Drivers Supporting culture change (shift to interdependency) Fostering supportive workplace relationships Destigmatizing emotional distress Avoiding “pathologizing” of normal emotions The campaign connects to Health and Safety and Respect for People core values. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  10. I.C.U. CampaignAn awareness campaign encouraging employees to support one another http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  11. Program Design Simple message—care for others: “ICU = I See You” ICU/I See You presentation format: 5-minute automated PowerPoint Also available in Speakers Guide with manual PowerPoint deck Translated into seven languages (92 percent coverage of DuPont employees) Compatible as a Core Value Contact (meeting opener) http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  12. Promotion Plan Launched by Integrated Health Services in all regions Partners Safety, Health, Environment Respect for People coordinators Human Resources leaders Operations Employee assistance program (EAP) vendors (EAP operates in 68 countries.) Campaign style in large sites E-mail/Web campaigns in smaller sites http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  13. Support for Program Replication Provided by the Partnership for Workplace Mental Health DuPont has made available the ICU Campaign to the Partnership for Workplace Mental Health, a program of the American Psychiatric Foundation. The Partnership will be making a more universal version of what DuPont created available for other organizations to adopt to build their own supportive work environments. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  14. Keys to Success Keep it simple. Connect to critical business issues and core values. Know the key constituencies and gain early support for the concept. Reach out to all potential partners for inclusion and input (no turf battles). Make cultural adaptations as needed to maximize positive impact. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  15. Benefits/Positive Outcomes Concrete example of the company’s concern for people—“walks the talk” A sense of “permission” reported by employees to support colleagues Sustainable message that emphasizes the destigmatization of emotional ill health Significant increase in the promotion of our EAP globally—lots of “buzz” http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

Functions include general government, human services, public health, law enforcement, transportation, public works, tax collection, and libraries. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  33. Emotional Wellness Defined Being emotionally well is more than handling stress. Emotional wellness involves paying attention to work/life balance, health behaviors, personal resiliency, healthy stress management, expressing emotion appropriately, and adapting to change. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  34. 2009—Concerns Identified Prior to Initiative Higher depression prevalence than comparable government jurisdictions (healthcare claims data). Indication by 50 percent of health assessment participants of “emotional concerns.” Three antidepressants in top ten drug costs $917,171. Total for all antidepressants = $1.45 million (healthcare/prescription data). Higher numbers of depression-related disability claims. Increases in depression-related workplace accommodation requests. Increase in requests from supervisors for training in emotional health topics. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  35. Emotional Wellness Committee Established Cross-functional group includes representatives from HR, Benefits, and Health/Wellness. The group identifies deficiencies: no return-to-work (RTW) program, no early screening beyond employee assistance program (EAP), poor integration of benefits. There are top management presentations to secure “buy-in.” The Committee negotiates “fixes” with EAP, health, and disability insurance. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  36. Scope of Program The committee developed and implemented the following proactive approaches: Online screening with referral option to EAP Training and education for supervisors and staff Onsite case manager for stay at work/RTW Family and Medical Leave Act, ADA, disability claims go to one unit Emotional Wellness expert panel and resource fair http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  37. Management Training Teaches managers HOW to intervene as well as WHEN Tells them what resources are available Teaches them to describe behavior and maintain focus on work and what their role is and is not Trains them to intervene early and often http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  38. Training Results A survey administered 90 days after the training revealed that the training was used. In the survey, 96 percent said tools and resources improved their confidence when meeting with employees. They identified the following topics as most useful: Supervisor role—do’s & don’ts Boundaries between work/personal subjects General information about depression treatment http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  39. “Stay at Work/Return to Work”Program Overview The program helps employees in these situations: When a medical/emotional condition is affecting their ability to stay at work When an employee on medical leave returns to work There are onsite case managers—both a registered nurse and a licensed psychologist. Service is confidential, voluntary, and free for short-term disability and long-term disability participants. Cost is covered by disability insurance. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  40. “Stay at Work/Return to Work” Program Overview (cont.) Offers case manager services Coordinates efforts with ADA, Work Return Assistance, and Workers’ Compensation claims Who benefits? A variety of employees who might be able to avoid filing a disability claim, or return to work sooner. http://www.promoteacceptance.samhsa.gov/

  41. “Stay at Work/Return to Work” Program Results The program promotes early intervention. Employees receive optimal care and referral to preferred providers.
