The next focus of Public Policy should be the focus on becoming a more truncated society in the way that we address and accept the ongoing inexactment of psychological distress and issues among our professional population.
In truth, there is a tendency of any professional today to not report or inform someone if they are under undue psychological distress.
Today this is evident in the pilot who was interred and hospitalized on the Jet Blue airline which was interrupted in flight due to his 'psychotic' out break in the cockpit.
I would think that if there is more mental health awareness and an increased amount of vigilance in the personal conduct of persons in terms of their own pensive and interrupted overall mental health, that perhaps we can have safer and more well experiences in all of our service and other industries.
There should be incentives for self reporting psychological impairments and no penalties for which we are avoiding a major catastrophe in order to allow someone either some time off or if absolutely necessary, a transition into permanent disability.
The issue is that today there are too many negative consequences therefore socially, professionally and of course financially for any person to report that his or her health is not up to par emotionally or professionally or otherwise mentally in all of our professional fields today.
This must be challenged and we must submit ourselves to a future whereby our safety can be ensured by the total arrangement of the individual reflecting upon what time it is to Stop what he or she is doing and not push oneself to a difficulty which will continue to snowball further down hill.
This would be good for mental health.
This would negate some of the stigma of psychological stressors and challenges.
This should even potentially be rewarded with other assurances of a positive future whether in some other functional role in society or otherwise in a financial positive outcome for those who self report.
Lets keep incapacitated professionals out of the work place and keep out work place safe and also ensure that our citizens are not faced with indefinate loss in the event that their physical and mental make up at some time does not completely meet the full expectations of the job at hand.
