Indians stressed due to work and finances, says CignaTTK Health Insurance survey Jul 09, 2018 08:52 PM IST A high percentage of Indians suffer from stress due to work and financial issues. A survey by CignaTTK Health Insurance said about 89 percent of the population in India suffer from stress compared to the global average of 86 percent. The Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey-Future Assured showed stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries including the United States, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia. In addition, one in eight people has serious trouble in dealing with stress, with millennials suffering more than other groups. Nearly, 75 percent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress, cost being one of the biggest barriers to seeking professional help. The survey drew on 14,467 online interviews conducted between February to March 2018, across 23 countries and territories. “Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programs that include mental wellness,” said Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance. Work and finances are the key reasons people gave for their high level of stress. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness program. The majority, 87 percent, said workplace wellness programmes are important in choosing between two potential employers. Financial preparedness is a major concern The findings show one in two respondents in India plans to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old age, followed by insurance. Four in ten people in India have purchased health insurance for themselves. The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion has full-time employment and are more affluent. Indians open to sharing health data In India, private healthcare is perceived to be superior to public care in every aspect, except cost, by a resounding majority. As a result, there is a huge preference for private healthcare in India, with the majority utilising this system across all medical conditions.

Indians most stressed globally on work and finance issues: Survey PTI/Jul 9, 2018, 7:58 pm IST Stress levels are the highest in the country with 89 per cent of survey respondents claiming they suffer from stress
on issues such as finances, work, among others, compared with the global average of 86 per cent. This makes India

In comparison people from other developed and emerging countries including the US, Britain, Germany, France,
China, Brazil and Indonesia feel much less stressed, said a survey by Cigna TTK Health Insurance. In addition,
one in eight Indians have serious trouble in dealing with stress, with the millennials suffering more than other
groups.
What more, nearly, 75 per cent of the respondents in the country do not feel comfortable talking to a medical
professional about their stress, with consultation cost being one of the biggest barriers.
The survey, involving nearly 14,500 people in 23 countries, explores people's perceptions and concerns on health
and their sense of well-being across five key areas - physical, family, social, financial and work.
Workplace wellness has emerged as a key theme with 87 per cent of the respondents feeling that workplace
wellness programmes are important in choosing between two potential employers.
The findings show that one in two respondents plan to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old
age, followed by insurance.
Four in 10 Indians have purchased health insurance for themselves. Almost 90 per cent of those surveyed are open
to sharing their healthcare data, as they see the benefits for better treatment and lower costs.

Nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the globe were interviewed online for the fourth edition of this study, which focused respondents' perceptions and concerns on five core areas: physical health, family, social, finances and work environment. Sadly, it is found that, one in eight people have serious trouble in dealing with stress, with Millennials suffering more than other groups. Some 75 per cent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress. As per Cigna TTK Health Insurance report, India takes the top spot in the overall global well-being index for the fourth year running. The country only showed slight declines in physical, social and family wellness this year, while respondents remained optimistic about work and financial well-being. The largest percentage falls in the physical area were seen in weight and nutrition management, followed by sleep-related challenges. In the social pillar, over 50 per cent of the people from India said they are not spending sufficient time with friends, nor do they have enough time for hobbies.

Indians most stressed globally on work, finance issues: Survey A high percentage of Indians suffer from stress due to work and financial issues. A survey by CignaTTK Health Insurance said about 89 percent of the population in India suffer from stress compared to the global average of 86 percent. The Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey-Future Assured showed stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries including the United States, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia. In addition, one in eight people has serious trouble in dealing with stress, with millennials suffering more than other groups. Nearly, 75 percent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress, cost being one of the biggest barriers to seeking professional help. The survey drew on 14,467 online interviews conducted between February to March 2018, across 23 countries and territories. “Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programs that include mental wellness,” said Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance. Work and finances are the key reasons people gave for their high level of stress. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness program. The majority, 87 percent, said workplace wellness programmes are important in choosing between two potential employers. Financial preparedness is a major concern The findings show one in two respondents in India plans to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old age, followed by insurance. Four in ten people in India have purchased health insurance for themselves. The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion has full-time employment and are more affluent. Indians open to sharing health data In India, private healthcare is perceived to be superior to public care in every aspect, except cost, by a resounding majority.

Work stress driving Kiwis to breaking point Kiwis are known for their strong work ethic, but it could very well be the thing driving many to breaking point. It's been revealed New Zealand is the fourth worst in the world for unmanageable stress and the workplace is one of the main drivers. Beverley Main is one worker who was pushed to breaking point. She spent the last 15 years of her career as a CEO, and loved her work, but it was the very thing that caused her to burn out. "I found I was having to work longer and longer hours, right into the night, the weekend, and it wasn't until I left that I realised I was doing 80 hours a week," she told Newshub. She says things reached boiling point in the last five years of her role. "I'd be crying at my desk at home. If somebody talked to me or looked at me the wrong way I'd just be a flood of tears." She was running on just a few hours' sleep a night, had recurring shingles, adrenal fatigue, and ended up with a heart problem. "My heart was operating at 40 percent of its normal function, which was not good, and I was told if I didn't do something about it that I'd die at my desk - and probably quite soon." Ms Main decided she wanted to live and resigned. "Everyone knew I wasn't well but nobody really knew how to deal with it," she says. New figures from Cigna's 360 Wellbeing survey reveal New Zealand is fourth equal in the world with the UK for unmanageable stress. Eighty-three percent of Kiwis says they suffer from stress and a third say work is the cause. Half of people say their employers don’t offer support. Mental Health Foundation chief executive Shaun Robinson says the figures prove some businesses need to do better.

"I think you're actually undermining your own business as well as not doing the right thing by your people," he told Newshub. "You're going to have higher turnover, higher absenteeism. It's just not a good business model to exploit people through stress." Ms Main says her former employer offered her little support before and after her resignation. "I didn’t hear from my organisation once I left apart from them enquiring if I had the company's laptop which I didn't." But Ms Main does admit her employer isn't solely to blame. She says she also allowed herself to work too hard and hopes others won't make the same mistake. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/lifestyle/2018/07/work-stress-driving-kiwis-to-breaking-point.html

9 out of 10 Indians suffer from stress, says survey July 10, 2018 | 15:26 IST Nearly 9 in 10 Indians suffer from stress. In fact, the recently-released findings of the 2018 Cigna 360 Well-Being Survey - Future Assured, conducted by Cigna TTK Health Insurance, show that stress levels are higher in Indian compared with other developed and emerging countries, including the United States, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia. According to Moneycontrol, the survey further revealed that 95 per cent of Indian millennials between the age group of 18-34 are stressed compared to the global average of 86 per cent. Making matters worse, one in eight Indians have serious trouble in dealing with stress but nearly 75 per cent of the Indian respondents said they don't feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress. Consultation cost was cited as one of the biggest barriers to seeking professional help. This survey was launched in 2014 with the goal of exploring well-being perceptions and concerns across five key areas of well-being - physical, family, social, financial and work. This year's survey is Cigna's most global yet, talking to nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world, and the interviews were conducted between February and March this year. With work being cited as one of the key triggers for stress in the country - the other oft-mentioned culprit being finances - it's not surprising that workplace wellness is taking centrestage. A whopping 87 per cent of the respondents said that workplace wellness programmes are important in choosing between two potential employers. And India is doing well in this front. About half the respondents reportedly said that they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness programme. "Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programs that include mental wellness," said Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance. India, however, needs to buck up when it comes to financial readiness for old age. The survey findings show that one in two respondents plan to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old age, followed by insurance. Only four in 10 Indians have purchased health insurance for themselves. According to the portal, the people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning and are diligent about regular health checks and their own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion has full-time employment and is more affluent. Another interesting takeaway from the survey is India's high willingness to share data. Almost 90 per cent of those surveyed claimed to be open to sharing their healthcare data, as they see the benefits for better treatment and lower costs.

World Population Day: What ails the Youth of India Jul 11 2018. 12 32 PM IST Plagued with problems ranging from stress, unmet family planning needs, unbalanced diets and gender disparities in labour, the Indian youth seems far from turning into an aggressive workforce in future. India is facing a major challenge in nurturing its youth to make it a productive labour force. Population dynamics, marital statistics, fertility and contraception, mortality and neonatal health care, literacy and employment play important roles in the lives of young men and women. Interestingly, around half of India’s population in its reproductive age (15-49 years) still does not use a modern method of contraception to prevent unwanted pregnancies or space births. “The aspirations of today’s youth are different. An unmet need for family planning not only affects the abilities of men and women to plan families, but it also decreases overall well-being, limits opportunities to increase earnings, participate in the workforce, access health services, and pursue their own education and that of their children,” said Poonam Muttreja, executive director of Population Foundation of India. For youth already in the workforce, stress remains a major factor. The Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey 2018 done by Cigna TTK Health Insurance covering nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world reveals that stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries. About 89% of the population in India said they are suffering from stress compared with the global average of 86%. The statistics are also disturbing for women in workforce. A report by the ministry of statistics and programme implementation—Youth in India-2017—stated that during 2011-12, about 55% of males and about 18 % of females in rural areas were in the labour force, whereas the corresponding percentages in urban areas were about 56% for males and about 13% for females. “The lack of infrastructure, unavailability of basic amenities at work places, rigid and inflexible work hours, absence of care facilities at or near the work places have not motivated women to participate in the labour market significantly,” said Arup Mitra, professor, health policy research unit at the Institute of Economic Growth. https://www.livemint.com/Politics/NPvOYLP5VI6GkBRbAfZiZP/World-Population-Day-What-ails-the-Youth-of-India.html

89% Indians suffering from stress, but 75% not comfortable talking to professionals Thu, Jul 12 2018. 11 06 AM IST Stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries, including the US, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia, according to the 2018 Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey – Future Assured released earlier this week. The survey, carried out by Cigna TTK Health Insurance, a joint venture between US-based Cigna Corp. and Indian conglomerate TTK Group, said about 89% of the population in India said they were suffering from stress compared to the global average of 86%. In addition, one in eight people have serious trouble in dealing with stress, with millennials suffering more than other groups. Nearly, 75% of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress, with cost being one of the biggest barriers. The survey explored people’s perceptions and concerns on health and their sense of well-being across five key areas—physical, family, social, finances and work. The survey covered 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world. India takes the top spot in the overall global well-being index for the fourth year running. The country only showed slight declines in physical, social and family wellness this year, while respondents remained optimistic about work and financial well-being. The largest percentage falls are in the physical area and were seen in weight and nutrition management, followed by sleep-related challenges. In the social pillar, over 50% of people from India said they are not spending sufficient time with friends or have enough time for hobbies. The dip in family well-being is mostly due to growing concerns about the ability to financially support parents and children. Work and finances are the key reasons people gave for high level of stress. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness program. The majority, 87%, said that workplace wellness programs are important in choosing between two potential employers. The findings show that one in two respondents in India plans to finance medical expenses from savings in old age, followed by insurance. Four in 10 people in India have bought health insurance for themselves. The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion have full-time employment and are more affluent.

2018 Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey highlights the increasing need to manage workplace stress By Ahmad Zaki | 12 Jul 2018 Cigna released the results of its 2018 Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey -- Future Assured, which were tracked over a four year period, show rising awareness of the need to prepare for old age, which includes being continually active and financially independent. As a result, people are working harder today, and increasingly calling on employers to help in managing workplace stress. The survey was launched in 2014 with the goal of exploring well-being perceptions and concerns across five key areas of well-being - physical, family, social, financial and work. This year's survey is Cigna's most global yet, talking to nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world. The Index -- the combined scores of the five areas -- dropped 1.1 points overall compared to last year's survey, from 62.3 to 61.2 points. With the exception of Singapore, all markets surveyed recorded a drop of 1.1 to 3.9 points since last year, with Thailand reporting the largest fall. Despite recording the second largest fall, India maintained its place at the head of the index. Financial well-being, previously a declining trend, finally stabilized in all markets as respondents are beginning to feel more positive about their current situation. However, there are increased concerns over social well-being -- people are working harder at the cost of quality time for friends and hobbies; and physical well-being -- quality of sleep, weight and a balanced diet. Cigna International Markets' president, Jason Sadler said: "More people are feeling positive about their current financial situation and understand the need to prepare for the future. However, the survey also showed that there is a trade-off as we face higher workplace stress today. For Cigna, this means we must continue to help individuals and organizations gain a better state of well-being. Collectively, if we can help employees deal better with stress, their well-being will improve." Stress is a Key Factor in Workplace Wellness The workplace plays a critical role in health, wellness and planning for a secure future. The Workplace Well-being Index increased from 67.5 to 69.1 points over last year. People have an increasingly positive outlook towards their workplace wellness and recognize the value of work-life balance. However, stress remains the biggest workplace issue. Some 15 percent of workers said they are unable to manage stress, with Millennials in the workplace viewing themselves as least able to cope. Those who say they are unable to manage stress are less physically fit, less sociable and more likely to seek professional help and be prescribed medication. Stress management presents a challenge to employers and way for them to improve staff retention and motivation. Over 50 percent of employees in the survey claim they do not receive company support in dealing with stress or have a formal workplace wellness program in place. When asked about workplace wellness

programs, 73 percent of working Millennials agree they are important in choosing between two potential employers. More are Geared Up for Old Age One positive development revealed by the survey was that 50 percent of respondents claim to be prepared for old age through active aging and financial readiness. However, they also believe that insurance alone may not cover all their needs, and plan to dip into their savings to help during retirement. In most developed economies and where public health systems are well regarded, such as China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, people expect to rely on government help for healthcare costs. About one-third of respondents have a fear of not being visible in old age, with social circles shrinking and mobility becoming an issue. Most respondents, especially in Asia, expect to receive support from their family in old age rather than help from professional caregivers. Respondents in Indonesia and Thailand have the largest expectation that children will take care of the elderly. The Need for Affordable and Accessible Healthcare Respondents outside the U.S. showed a preference for private healthcare over public services, but cost is a sobering factor. People choose public healthcare for the most critical medical procedures. Private healthcare is used at a higher rate than the public system in the areas of dental services and eye-care. Data Sharing can Create Better Health Individuals are also highly open to health data sharing with third parties (8 out of 10) if it lowers healthcare costs, provides better access to healthcare and enables early detection. Next to doctors and government-run health databases, people are open to sharing their health data with insurance companies and communities with similar medical conditions. "The findings show there is an opportunity for the health services and insurance industry to create solutions that are customized and affordable for each individual. Data sharing is also an area where we can work together to assure the accessibility and affordability of healthcare in the future," said Mr Sadler. "Three of the key pillars of research we focus on in our Survey -- Aging, Workplace Wellness, and Affordability and Accessibility of Healthcare -- give us better insights and guide us as we deal with macro-economic developments such as an aging and growing middle-class population. Our aim is to partner with our customers throughout their well-being journey and contribute towards a #Future Assured," he said. http://www3.asiainsurancereview.com/News/View-NewsLetter-Article?id=43472&Type=ARM

Indians most stressed people when it comes to work and finance issues Last Updated: Tue, Jul 10, 2018 This is a country often known for its values. A country that has more rural villages than urban metropolitan centres. A country with the second largest population and an ever-accelerating use of smartphones. A country that has been the origin and source of various technologies, and scientific breakthroughs. But, Indians, also remain the most stressed, according to a survey. The findings compiled by Cigna Insurance survey says the country has the highest number of respondents claiming they remained stressed- nearly 89%. India, however is not too far from the global average of 86%. Elementary physics may suggest that stress in moderate levels can help achieve, but symptoms of chronic stress and frequent bouts of job overload and clumsy environment may take a huge toll on a person's life. Stressed people are more likely to turn to vices, impacting various physiological processes and ultimately life. The study evaluated stress levels among 14,500 individuals from 23 countries- majorly China, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, India. The study explores people’s perceptions and concerns on health and their sense of well-being across five key areas -physical, family, social, financial and work. "With the exception of Singapore, all markets surveyed recorded a drop of 1.1 to 3.9 points since last year, with Thailand reporting the largest fall. Despite recording the second largest fall, India maintained its place at the head of the index," reads a release from Cigna. The study, a sequel to a previous one, found that respondents were feeling positive about their current situation. But, this positivism was at the cost of quality time spent with families, friends, hobbies, and even physical well-being. Some even gave away the quality of sleep, weight and balanced diet in order to attain financial well being. "Financial well-being, previously a declining trend, finally stabilized in all markets as respondents are beginning to feel more positive about their current situation. However, there are increased concerns over social well-being -- people are working harder at the cost of quality time for friends and hobbies; and physical well-being - quality of sleep, weight and a balanced diet," reads the report. Social well as a challenge is unlikely to meet an immediate resolution, considering 75% Indians do not feel comfortable sharing their concerns on stress with a medical professional. Workplace wellness emerged as a key theme with 87% respondents feeling that workplace wellness programs were important in choosing between potential employers.

Indians “Most Stressed Workers in the world”, According to New Cigna 360 Well-Being Survey Navanwita Bora Sachdev POSTED ON JULY 10, 2018
India has topped work and finance-related stress levels once more according to the 2018 survey by Cigna 360 Well-Being Survey. Conducted by the Cigna Corporation, the survey tracked the well-being areas of physical, family, social, finance, and work. While globally, the score has dropped by 1.1 point since last year, from 62.3 to 61.2, India is at the top at 70.4 in spite of recording the second-largest drop after Thailand. India was followed by Nigeria and Saudi Arabia tying at 65.1, while Mexico, US, and China came in at around 63. The world average was recorded to be 61.2. Compared to countries like Brazil, Germany, UAE, Thailand, and China, India seems poorly prepared in well-being areas like preparedness for old age, financial independence in old age, as well as, social, physical, and workplace indexes. Also, women in India in the 18-34 age group are less optimistic about their health than their male counterparts. Calling the 35-49 age group ‘the Sandwich Generation’, the score revealed that they have lesser time for hobbies and socializing. Dr. Roy Sugarman, PhD., neuropsychologist, said, “Social media and the 24/7 lifestyle means less time available for hobbies and socializing, for the Sandwich generation especially. I see in clinical practice that multiple, but online-focused relationships through social media cannot replace the need for real, face-to-face relationship time and socializing for a feeling of well-being.” While matrices like maintaining a balanced diet, a healthy weight, and sound sleep also declined, Indian respondents said they felt less positive than other countries about their finances in their current position. This included the financial ability to pay for mortgages and loans and maintaining the current standard of living. According to the survey, workplace stress has increased, one in six respondents revealing that they felt unable to manage work-related stress. Most respondents felt the need for a better wellness programme on the part of their employer. The survey opines, “For employers, stress management is a huge opportunity to address productivity and attract and retain talent. Demonstrating the impact of modern life, stress management has become the number one employee insurance benefit request, over traditional basics like dental and vision care benefits.” Presenteeism, which is the obligation an employee feels to report in for work no matter the circumstance, was revealed as a particular source of stress. In fact, 73% of millennials felt affected by presenteeism. Somehow, Indians are among the more trustworthy with sharing health-related data with insurance companies, as are Thais and Indonesians. The global average for perception of the beginning of old age was recorded at 63.8

years, while Indians perceived it at 69 years. This is dismal compared to the old age onset perception of US at 80 years, UK at 81 years, China at 76 years, and Australia at 82 years. In fact, India has only beat Nigeria at 54 years and South Africa at 64 years. https://thetechpanda.com/2018/07/10/indians-most-stressed-workers-in-the-world-according-to-new-cigna-360-well-being-survey/

Indians are stressed out by work, finance situation Stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries including the US, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia, a new survey by insurance major Cigna has revealed. About 89 per cent of those surveyed in India said they suffer from stress, compared to the global average of 86 per cent, showed the 2018 Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey – Future Assured. The key reasons for the high stress levels are work and finance. However, the proportion in India who found stress unmanageable was lower than the global average. The 2018 Survey adopted a more forward-looking approach, #Future Assured, exploring people’s perceptions and concerns on health and their sense of well-being across five key areas: physical, family, social, finances and work. For the survey, now in its fourth year, Cigna conducted 14,467 online interviews from February to March 2018 in 23 countries. In India, a sample size of 1,000 respondents in the age group of 25 years and above was surveyed across 20 cities. Work and finances are the key reasons for stress, with millennials (18-34 years) suffering more than other groups: 95 per cent millennialls reported feeling most stressed and least able to cope. Nearly, 75 per cent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress; cost is a barrier to seeking professional help. Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance, said the workplace plays an important role in the health and well-being of an employee. Corporations can include health and wellness programs in every employee’s benefits package, he added. In India, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they are participating in a workplace wellness program.

Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey: Work & finances top reasons for stress By: Saikat Neogi | Published: July 16, 2018 2:15 AM For most Indians, work and finances are the reasons for stress and one in two respondents in India plan to finance their medical expenses in old age from their savings, followed by insurance. These are the findings of Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey. The findings reveal that stress levels are high in India compared with developed countries such as United States, UK, Germany and France and emerging economies including China, Brazil and Indonesia. This year’s Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey underlines that India is on the top spot showing only slight decline in physical, social and family wellness while work and financial optimism shine. Millennials (18-34 years) in general are more upbeat about their health and wellness compared to older demographic groups.
Financially, the report says, women see themselves as performing better compared to other demographic groups. The dip in financial well-being is mostly about financial security if unable to work, and due to growing concerns about their ability to financially support parents and children. The Cigna research reveal that while being socially isolated is a concern for some, a majority of people in India still believe in the strong family structure and are counting on being taken care of by either their spouse or children in old age. Cigna TTK Health Insurance Company Limited, a stand-alone health insurance company, is a joint venture between the US-based Cigna Corporation and Indian conglomerate TTK Group. Health cover The survey, covering 1,000 respondents in the age group of 25 years and above in 20 cities, found that four in 10 people in India have purchased health insurance for themselves. “The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion have full-time employment and are more affluent,” notes the report. Most respondents in the survey said private healthcare is superior to public care on every aspect, except cost. As a result, there is a huge preference for private healthcare in India, with the majority utilising this system across all medical conditions. Most respondents are willing to share their healthcare data as they see the benefits for better treatment and lower costs. However, about half of the respondents say they would want to know how their data is being utilised. Being transparent is crucial, though, with about half of the respondents saying they would want to know how their data is being used. “Private healthcare is used more for primary care, dental and eye-care. Potential tradeoff on cost represents an opportunity for an insurer to bridge this healthcare gap,” the report says.

World Population Day: What ails the Youth of India Plagued with problems ranging from stress, unmet family planning needs, unbalanced diets and gender disparities in labour, the Indian youth seems far from turning into an aggressive workforce in future. India is facing a major challenge in nurturing its youth to make it a productive labour force. Population dynamics, marital statistics, fertility and contraception, mortality and neonatal health care, literacy and employment play important roles in the lives of young men and women. Interestingly, around half of India’s population in its reproductive age (15-49 years) still does not use a modern method of contraception to prevent unwanted pregnancies or space births. “The aspirations of today’s youth are different. An unmet need for family planning not only affects the abilities of men and women to plan families, but it also decreases overall well-being, limits opportunities to increase earnings, participate in the workforce, access health services, and pursue their own education and that of their children,” said Poonam Muttreja, executive director of Population Foundation of India. For youth already in the workforce, stress remains a major factor. The Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey 2018 done by Cigna TTK Health Insurance covering nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world reveals that stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries. About 89% of the population in India said they are suffering from stress compared with the global average of 86%. The statistics are also disturbing for women in workforce. A report by the ministry of statistics and programme implementation—Youth in India-2017—stated that during 2011-12, about 55% of males and about 18 % of females in rural areas were in the labour force, whereas the corresponding percentages in urban areas were about 56% for males and about 13% for females. “The lack of infrastructure, unavailability of basic amenities at work places, rigid and inflexible work hours, absence of care facilities at or near the work places have not motivated women to participate in the labour market significantly,” said Arup Mitra, professor, health policy research unit at the Institute of Economic Growth. http://businessfortnight.com/world-population-day-what-ails-the-youth-of-india/

89 per cent of India's population suffering from stress; most don't feel comfortable talking to medical professionals Stress levels seem to be high in India compared to other countries, both developed and emerging, says a survey conducted by Cigna TTK Health Insurance. About 89% of the population in India say they are suffering from stress compared to the global average of 86%. Nearly 75% of respondents here do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress and cite cost as one of the barriers. Work and finances are the key reasons people attribute their stress to. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness programme. The workplace plays an important role in the health and well-being of an employee. Prasun Sikdar, CEO, Cigna TTK Health Insurance, said, "Managing workplace stress is important for corporations, as they can include health and wellness programmes in every employee’s benefits package. Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programmes that include mental wellness. These benefits can boost employee confidence and make them feel that their role in the workplace is really #Future Assured. At the end of the day, good health equals good business". https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/89-per-cent-of-indias-population-suffering-from-stress-most-dont-feel-comfortable-talking-to-medical-professionals/articleshow/64926633.cms

Cigna 360° Well-being Survey Cigna’s (NYSE:CI) India business, Cigna TTK Health Insurance, a joint venture between U.S.-based global health services company, Cigna Corporation and Indian conglomerate TTK Group, today released the results of its 2018 Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey – Future Assured. The findings reveal that stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries including the United States, UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia. About 89 percent of the population in India say they are suffering from stress compared to the global average of 86 percent. In addition, one in eight people have serious trouble in dealing with stress, with Millennials suffering more than other groups. Nearly, 75 percent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress - cost is one of the biggest barriers to seeking professional help. Now in its fourth year, the 2018 Survey adopted a more forward-looking approach #Future Assured, exploring people’s perceptions and concerns on health and their sense of well-being across five key areas - physical, family, social, finances and work. This year’s survey is Cigna’s most global yet, talking to nearly 14,500 people in 23 markets around the world. India takes the top spot in the overall global well-being Index for the fourth year running. The country only showed slight declines in Physical, Social and Family wellness this year, while respondents remain optimistic about Work and Financial well-being. The largest percentage falls are in the Physical area were seen in weight and nutrition management, followed by sleep-related challenges. In the Social pillar, over 50 percent of people from India said they are not spending sufficient time with friends or have enough time for hobbies. The dip in Family well-being is mostly due to growing concerns about the ability to financially support parents and children. WORKPLACE WELLNESS SCORES HIGH Work and finances are the key reasons people gave for their high level of stress. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness program. The majority, 87 percent, said that workplace wellness programs are important in choosing between two potential employers. While current workplace wellness programs are making stress marginally more manageable, it seems there is still plenty of room for improvement. “The workplace plays an important role in the health and well-being of an employee. Managing workplace stress is important for corporations, as they can include health and wellness programs in every employee’s benefits package. Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programs that include mental wellness.

workplace is really #Future Assured. At the end of the day, good health equals good business,” said Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance. FINANCIAL PREPAREDNESS IS A MAJOR CONCERN The findings show that one in two respondents in India plan to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old age, followed by insurance. Four in ten people in India have purchased health insurance for themselves. The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion have full time employment and are more affluent. HIGH WILLINGNESS TO SHARE HEALTHCARE DATA In India, private healthcare is perceived to be superior to public care on every aspect, except cost, by a resounding majority. As a result, there is a huge preference for private healthcare in India, with the majority utilizing this system across all medical conditions. There is also a high willingness to share data in India. Almost 90 percent of those surveyed said that they would be open to sharing their healthcare data, as they see the benefits for better treatment and lower costs. Being clear about how data will be used is crucial, with about half of the respondents saying they would want to know how their data is being utilized. “Serving the under penetrated market with needs based solutions will continue to play a pivotal role in this sector. We believe that innovation in health insurance is especially important in India, with an increased focus on condition management, blockchain technology, adoption of wearable and portable devices. There are clear advantages from the use of digital health data. As digital health devices evolve, more data will be available about lifestyle and disease management for insurance companies to use proactively”, said Sapna Desai, Head of Marketing and Communications, Cigna TTK Health Insurance 2018 CIGNA 360° WELL-BEING SURVEY – FUTURE ASSURED The 2018 Cigna 360o Well-being Survey 2018 drew on 14,467 online interviews conducted between February to March 2018, across 23 countries and territories, and can be downloaded https://bit.ly/2u2revW About Cigna TTK Health Insurance Company Limited Cigna TTK Health Insurance Company Limited is a joint venture between the U.S. based global health services leader, Cigna Corporation and Indian conglomerate TTK Group.

Beat the stress A recent survey concluded that Indians are the most stressed about work and financial issues globally. The survey by Cigna TTK Health Insurance involved nearly 14,500 people in 23 countries, exploring people’s perceptions and concerns related to several factors like physical health, family life, social life, financial status and work situations. Where are Indian millennials headed in terms of their life quality and what measures can be taken to turn the situation around? “It is extremely important to have a work-life balance. Most countries in the West are trying to implement a work-life balance by offering a vast support system at work. Work-life balance is an individual’s ability to maintain an equilibrium between work, home and self. It aims to achieve the perfect amount of time in each of the areas without spilling over to the other,” says Mamta Shah, consultant clinical psychologist and psychotherapist. She further adds, “Indians hold work in the highest esteem leading to a compromise in other areas. This in turn tips the work-life balance to one side leading to high pressure and stress situations. Support systems at work, home and individually are of utmost importance for things to turn around. Having a work environment which caters to flexible working hours or working from home can be helpful for individuals who don’t live in joint families or don’t have support at home. Taking care of one’s emotional health and going to a therapist, although a taboo in India, is extremely important to help one deal with stress. Investing in a hobby can also release a lot of stress.” On the other hand, life coach Suneel Vatsyayan feels that most people do not even realise they are under stress. He says, “A profession gives us an identity but it comes with certain expectations. What we are missing is empowering workplaces because of negative/envious/cut throat competitiveness. People are often trying to hide their problems from their family members due to stigma or lack of trust. Talking about finance and work pressure in the family is a taboo. Even parents find it hard to discuss openly about financial difficulties one is facing at work.” While there is much stigma attached to admitting that one is under stress, psychiatrist and psychotherapist Samir Parikh is against comparisons with other nations. “Work creates stress all over the world for people. Only saying India has a lot of stress in terms of work won’t be fair. Yes, India is stressed out but there is a remedy. The solution to this is people shouldn’t be ready to work from home all the time. Organisations keep checking on the physical well being of their employees through various tests but there is nothing done for mental health. This is critical as stress levels can fall if the company takes care of their employees and ensures mental health relief,” says Samir. De-stressing can also include yoga, meditation, adequate sleep, a restful annual vacation and pursuing hobbies etc. “Yes, it’s true that Indians are the most stressed people in the world. According to the WHO statistics, every one out of three Indians is under stress. Also according to the WHO statistics, Delhi and NCR has the highest

number of depressed and anxious people in the world. This could also be because India has such a huge population. The advent of social media also creates a variety of psychological illnesses. Pollution is also known to cause hormonal imbalance leading to depression and anxiety,” says senior psychologist Akshay Kumar. He adds that research by Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough, at University of California, stated that people who wrote about five things they were grateful for during the day, every night before they slept, were happier and more successful than people who did not write them. “There can be a number of things which can be done: don’t hesitate to ask for help. Go to a professional counsellor or psychologist and things will get fine. It is also important to be satisfied with what you have achieved. Enjoy your present moment to the fullest and be grateful for what you have.” http://www.asianage.com/life/more-features/180718/beat-the-stress.html

Indians stressed due to work and finances, says CignaTTK Health Insurance survey A high percentage of Indians suffer from stress due to work and financial issues. A survey by CignaTTK Health Insurance said about 89 percent of the population in India suffer from stress compared to the global average of 86 percent. The Cigna 360° Well-Being Survey-Future Assured showed stress levels are high in India compared with other developed and emerging countries including the United States, the UK, Germany, France, China, Brazil and Indonesia. In addition, one in eight people has serious trouble in dealing with stress, with millennials suffering more than other groups. Nearly, 75 percent of respondents in India do not feel comfortable talking to a medical professional about their stress, cost being one of the biggest barriers to seeking professional help. The survey drew on 14,467 online interviews conducted between February to March 2018, across 23 countries and territories. “Employers can offer practical solutions such as flexi-hours or stress management programs that include mental wellness,” said Prasun Sikdar, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Cigna TTK Health Insurance. Work and finances are the key reasons people gave for their high level of stress. However, workplace wellness overall scored high, with about half the respondents saying they have received support and are participating in a workplace wellness program. The majority, 87 percent, said workplace wellness programmes are important in choosing between two potential employers. Financial preparedness is a major concern The findings show one in two respondents in India plans to finance their medical expenses from their savings in old age, followed by insurance. Four in ten people in India have purchased health insurance for themselves. The people who claim to be ready for older age are better at planning; they do regular health checks and own insurance. They are also more likely to be married with children, and a high proportion has full-time employment and are more affluent. Indians open to sharing health data In India, private healthcare is perceived to be superior to public care in every aspect, except cost, by a resounding majority. As a result, there is a huge preference for private healthcare in India, with the majority utilising this system across all medical conditions.

There is also a high willingness to share data in India. Almost 90 percent of those surveyed said they would be open to sharing their healthcare data, as they see the benefits of better treatment and lower costs. Being clear about how data will be used is crucial, with about half of the respondents saying they would want to know how their data is being utilised. https://twitter.com/moneycontrolcom/status/1016302928905297921
