↑ 0%Why managing Psychosocial Risk is becoming a global priority. Key takeaways * The global shift toward managing psychosocial risk in the workplace is changing how organizations support workforce mental health. * Lyra's Global Psychosocial Risk Management program is now available in many regions, helping multinational organizations navigate evolving workplace health and safety regulations. * Lyra combines localized expertise, regional guidance, and coordinated implementation to help organizations assess psychosocial risks and take meaningful action globally. Keren Wasserman Senior Manager, Workforce Mental Health Ask AI to summarize July 16, 2026 Supporting employee mental health has become more complex for the global workforce. Access to mental health care remains essential, but for multinational organizations it's no longer the only expectation. Increasingly, companies must assess workplace risks, put preventative controls in place, and demonstrate how they're reducing psychosocial risks before they affect employee well-being. To help organizations respond to these changes, Lyra's Global Psychosocial Risk Management program is now available across many regions. It helps organizations understand workplace risks, navigate regional needs, and turn insights into action through localized expertise, assessments, and practical action plans. The evolving reality of mental health in the workplace. In many regions, the conversation is expanding beyond access to services like coaching and therapy - employer responsibilities around mental health now include identifying and managing workplace factors that may contribute to psychological harm. That means looking at factors like excessive workloads, poorly managed organizational change, unclear expectations, or ineffective communication. These conditions can affect employee well-being, and in many countries they're also recognized as workplace health and safety risks that carry operational and regulatory consequences for organizations. Understanding these patterns can help uncover what's contributing to burnout, health-related leave, turnover, and disengagement, giving leaders clearer insight into where organizational changes can improve both employee well-being and organizational performance. Psychosocial risk management helps organizations proactively identify and address workplace conditions that may contribute to stress, creating opportunities to reduce risk before employees need additional support. Mental health care helps employees get the support they need. Together, they support both employees and the workplace conditions that influence their well-being, creating a more unified strategy that leads to better organizational health outcomes. One global workforce. Many local approaches. The challenge isn't simply that requirements differ. The landscape is changing, with 45+ countries continuing to introduce and expand psychosocial risk requirements in different ways. In Australia, mental health has moved onto the safety checklist, and employers may be required to treat psychosocial hazards like other workplace risks: find them, control them, and prevent harm before it happens. While in Japan, annual employee stress checks may be required, and, in Mexico, psychosocial risks are identified and addressed through structured workplace evaluations, including support for employees affected by traumatic workplace events or violence. These are just a few of the unique approaches emerging around the world. For multinational organizations, keeping pace with local needs can quickly become complex, especially when HR and health and safety teams are coordinating across multiple regions. Turning assessments into action. Many multinational organizations rely on separate consultants, fragmented assessments, resources, and regional partners to manage psychosocial risk. Coordinating those efforts across dozens of countries creates significant administrative work for HR, and health and safety teams. Drawing on Lyra's global care network, which supports members in more than 220 countries and territories, the program brings those capabilities together with wrap-around support from in-house workforce experts. Grounded in ISO-45003 frameworks and global best practices, Lyra's support combines localized assessments, expert-led focus groups, country-specific toolkits, regional organizational development consultants, and tailored action plans - all available within a single, trusted mental health care ecosystem. The result is a more consistent, centralized approach that helps organizations reduce complexity while operationalizing regional programs with confidence. Supporting organizations across borders. Supporting the global workforce of today requires more than expanding access to care. As countries continue to strengthen psychosocial risk requirements, global leaders need increased visibility into organizational policies and practices that could compromise employee well-being. These insights should be paired with practical ways to respond consistently while adapting locally. Lyra's Global Psychosocial Risk Management helps organizations do both, offering localized support and coordinated implementation powered by a trusted network of organizational health experts.

Globally scaled, culturally tuned: how Lyra develops AI around the world. Key takeaways * The same cultural understanding that informs its care also guides how Lyra Health, Inc. develop AI. * Local clinicians help test Lyra's AI guide before launch to make sure it reflects local culture, standard practice, and member needs. * Lyra continues evaluating its AI guide after launch because culture, and members' well-being needs evolve over time. Kirsty Hunter Clinical Director, International Dr Ambrish Dharmadhikari, MBBS, DNB (Psychiatry), PDRF (USA) Ask AI to summarize July 13, 2026 Building AI for mental well-being is about understanding people. A one-size-fits-all approach to AI doesn't work. Culture shapes how people seek help and respond to support. An AI model that performs well in the U.S. may overlook important cultural signals in India, France, or elsewhere. That's why launching AI to supplement well-being coaching requires adapting the experience for local culture before it ever reaches members for any new launch. As Lyra's AI guide expands beyond the U.S. to 12 additional countries, including Canada, France, Germany, India, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, with additional launches planned later this year, Lyra Health, Inc. is applying this ethos every time, tailoring its approach for every new country. What happens before AI reaches a member. Every launch begins long before the first conversation. Before Lyra's AI guide becomes available, each expansion undergoes a comprehensive review to help ensure the experience reflects local cultural nuances and regulatory needs. Meeting local standards. Every country has its own requirements for privacy, safety, regulatory, and AI governance. Before launch, Lyra evaluates country-specific regulations to help ensure the AI guide aligns with local laws and member expectations. Building with local expertise. Technology can help people find support faster, but regional coaches remain central to how care is delivered. Local Lyra clinicians help evaluate the AI guide before launch, ensuring it reflects local practices, cultural norms, and member needs. Their expertise helps shape how the AI guide responds in every market, keeping providers at the center, with AI serving as a complement rather than a replacement. Putting AI to the cultural test. A response can be grammatically correct, and still miss what someone is really trying to say. As its AI guide expands globally, local teams work together to test how the technology responds to culturally specific situations, and lived experiences. Testing includes scenarios such as: Recognizing different ways people talk about risk. People don't always describe concerns in the same way. Some concerns are expressed directly. Others are communicated through cultural references, family dynamics, or indirect language. Its teams evaluate whether the AI guide recognizes these important signals across cultures. In Mexico, local idioms and colorful metaphors are frequently used to describe interpersonal friction and workplace frustrations. When an employee explains that a coworker "le echa mucha crema a sus tacos," Lyra AI needs to look past the literal translation of the words to understand the cultural idiom of exaggeration and bragging. Instead of taking the phrase literally, its AI guide must recognize the underlying social context to help the member professionally navigate workplace dynamics and boundary-setting. Understanding the realities shaping well-being. Well-being doesn't exist in a vacuum. Immigration experiences, discrimination, financial strain, workplace stress, and access to basic needs can all influence how people experience - and talk about - emotional well-being. Its teams test the AI guide across a wide range of real-world situations to help ensure responses remain relevant and supportive. In Singapore, males are required to serve two years active duty in the National Service starting at age 18. When supporting Singaporean teenagers, particularly approaching their 18th birthday, through anxiety or hesitations, Lyra AI needs to acknowledge the local cultural context before moving into advice on how to manage anxious thoughts. Responding with cultural awareness. Conversations about identity, family expectations, stigma, body image, gender, sexuality, and bias require thoughtful, culturally informed support. Its teams evaluate how the AI guide responds to these sensitive topics across different cultural contexts to help ensure members receive respectful, appropriate support, and guidance. In India, workplace gender dynamics can be shaped by deep-rooted cultural norms. If a female employee worries about having a female boss or prefers male leadership, its AI guide should understand internalized gender biases within the Indian cultural context and thoughtfully explore how societal expectations and past leadership experiences shape perspective. Launch is just the beginning. Localization isn't a one-time project. Cultural norms shift and new challenges emerge. The way people talk about well-being changes over time. That's why local provider feedback continues well after launch. Lyra continuously evaluates the AI guide against country-specific safety and culturally responsive standards, using insights from regional provider teams to inform ongoing testing and improvements. A higher bar for global AI. People place enormous trust in well-being support and coaching. Expanding AI globally means earning that trust in every country where it's available. It takes local provider expertise, rigorous testing, continuous evaluation, and a commitment to understanding the people behind every conversation. That's the standard Lyra is bringing to every new market as its AI guide expands around the world. See how Lyra's AI guide combines AI with clinical expertise.

Building the blueprint for ai-enhanced care. Key takeaways * Responsible AI in mental health care requires thoughtful implementation. * Lyra introduced AI within coaching first to support skill-building between sessions. * Lyra AI is designed to enhance human care with clinical oversight and safety guardrails. Hallie Espel-Huynh, PhD Lead Clinical Product Manager of AI, Lyra Health Pia Trikha Sr. Operations Lead, Lyra Health Ask AI to summarize May 20, 2026 Why Lyra Health, Inc. chose coaching as its foundation for 24/7 AI support. Applying AI in care settings requires thoughtful implementation, clinical oversight, and a clear understanding of where technology can enhance the human experience of care. Rather than deploying AI broadly across all care settings, Lyra Health, Inc. has introduced it within its Lyra Care Coaching program first. Lyra's coaching program combines personalized support from carefully vetted and highly trained mental health coaches with evidence-backed digital activities that empower clients to navigate daily challenges. Overall, coaching offers more active, skill-building support for the most common stressors affecting most employees and their families, making it a natural foundation for what AI integration can most effectively enhance. The power of what happens between sessions. Live coaching sessions provide a strong base for clients. At the same time, true transformation often happens in the moments between sessions. That's why digital activities have always been a core part of Lyra's coaching approach. Data consistently shows that clients who engage with between-session tools see better care outcomes. Reinforcing skills outside of sessions helps people build habits that are sustainable. Lyra AI: your always-on support guide. Lyra AI builds on this foundation by providing clients with a reflective, interactive space they can turn to when they need it most. It's there when life actually happens. * Real-time feedback: Clients get instant help navigating challenges like a difficult conversation with a partner or anxiety about an upcoming work milestone. Lyra AI helps them unpack what they're experiencing, explore perspectives, and decide on their next step. * Always-on support: Whether it's a shift worker at 3 am or a parent awake in the middle of the night, 24/7 availability ensures support is there for people when they need it most. Why Lyra AI is different. Lyra Health, Inc. has invested heavily to ensure its AI technology is as safe as it is supportive and deeply integrated in its care ecosystem. * Intentional integration: Lyra coaches weave clients' AI interactions and reflections directly into their 1:1 work, seamlessly bridging the gap between sessions and the rhythms of daily life. * Human-in-the-loop safety: Multiple layers of care team oversight and technical guardrails help support client safety and identify situations where human intervention may be needed, including rare but urgent mental health concerns. By launching Lyra AI within its coaching program, Lyra Health, Inc. were able to leverage the trusted screening and safety processes already embedded across Lyra's care model. * Culturally responsive support: Lyra AI was developed and rigorously tested using a process informed by cultural humility. This ensures the experience is responsive to diverse backgrounds and social contexts. What comes next for Lyra AI in care. By starting with coaching and combining the power of its Lyra Care model with the 24/7 responsiveness and safety of Lyra AI, clients get a continuous, responsive ecosystem of support. As Lyra Health, Inc. move forward, providers will remain at the center of care and Lyra Health, Inc.'ll continue to combine deep clinical expertise with ongoing technological iteration based on its evaluations of how AI influences engagement, continuity, and outcomes. These learnings will help guide how this technology may support additional care experiences over time. Learn how Lyra builds safe, clinically grounded AI support.

Campaign of the Year: eli Lilly and Company. Awarded to a company recognized for its creativity and effectiveness in driving mental health awareness through a campaign that truly engages and inspires employees. Eli Lilly and Company's Campaign of the Year elevated mental health from a traditional benefit to a performance strategy through sustained, peer-led activation. Rather than focusing on a one-time launch, the campaign embedded Lyra within a broader mental health ecosystem - powered by executive support, mental health advocates, employee resource groups, and integrated health services - making support visible, accessible, and relevant across roles, shifts, and locations. What distinguished this campaign was how it came to life: prioritizing grassroots engagement over top-down communications, normalizing mental health, and meeting employees where they are. Real-time utilization insights continuously shaped the strategy into targeted workshops, manager tools, and family-focused outreach. Innovator of the Year: Tara Kousha, chief people and wellbeing officer, Catalight.

This data-driven approach led Tara to pioneer the first pilot of Lyra's Manager Coaching program. By sharing her insights with the broader community at Breakthrough and in last year's masterclass, she is ensuring her impact reaches far beyond the walls of Catalight. Innovative company of the Year award: AT&T. Awarded to the HR team that has demonstrated a willingness to push limits and think boldly about the future of workforce mental health.
