Description
A new study reveals the mental health struggles of CSIS employees, with many reporting PTSD, anxiety, insomnia, and burnout after traumatic events. The jobs demands for secrecy and constant vigilance create a culture of stigma and fear around mental illness, with employees worried about judgment or reprisals if they seek help. However, CSIS admits progress is being made, with better support for trauma and new training on handling disturbing content. Director Dan Rogers calls culture change his top priority, and the study sees hope in this slow shift towards openness on mental health.
