Supporting individuals with serious mental illness to engage in paid work can be helpful for developing more satisfying patterns of time use. Which of the following best explains this concept? a.

Employment reduces people’s time for leisure, so it helps to create “occupational balance.”

ANS: c Rationale: Employment has a range of benefits for individuals with serious mental illness. Most people with serious mental illness want to work and employment in good quality work roles provides money, time structure, status and esteem, a sense of purpose, social connections, and a range of other benefits, all of which can support more optimal patterns of time use. Even though work takes up many hours of people’s days, individuals who are engaged in employment typically report greater involvement in satisfying leisure activities when compared with people who are not employed.
