Honoring, Supporting, & Growing
May is Mental Health Awareness Month—a reminder that supporting well-being at work goes beyond offering benefits. It’s about reducing stress, improving clarity, and creating a culture where people can thrive. This month, we’re spotlighting the real impact of workplace stress, exploring how structure and communication help teams perform with confidence, and sharing takeaways from a recent SHRM leadership event.
At Gotcha Covered HR Powered by Delta Administrative Services, we’re here to help you build respectful, resilient workplaces—rooted in clarity and care.
Workplace Stress Runs Deeper Than You Think
New data shows how stress impacts employees far beyond the office walls.
Workplace stress isn’t just about late nights or heavy workloads. It’s about the ripple effects—how stress at work can follow people home, impact their health, and strain their relationships.
According to the American Institute of Stress:
🧠 77% of employees say work stress has harmed their mental health
💔 71% say it’s contributed to a relationship ending
⚠️ 47% say most or all of their stress comes from work
🩺 46% of healthcare workers report high or extreme stress levels
We work with companies to create environments that care for the whole person. Whether that means rethinking your handbook or supporting leadership with training, our focus is simple: lead with empathy and stay grounded in policy.

Clarity Builds Confident Teams
Your team can’t thrive in the dark.
In fast-moving work environments, clarity isn’t optional—it’s essential. Employees need more than a job description to succeed. They need structure, training, and access to reliable processes. When expectations are clear and information is easy to find, teams are empowered to work efficiently, safely, and confidently.
When that clarity is missing? Confusion sets in, productivity drops, and risk increases.
That’s why proactive HR and safety planning matters. In this short video, Teddy Young, Risk/Safety Manager at Delta Administrative Services, shares how setting expectations and building accessible processes leads to stronger, more resilient teams.
At Gotcha Covered HR Powered by Delta Administrative Services, we help businesses lay that foundation—through clear policies, onboarding programs, compliance training, and strategic HR support.
Clarity builds confidence. Confidence builds great teams.
