He added that all at the health care partnership were shocked to learn of his disappearance.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this difficult time and we will continue to hope for his safe return," he said.
Mr Baker was seen to gesture to a woman in the car behind him as he drove to work before jumping over a wall of Skeldergate Bridge, on the banks of the River Ouse, in York city centre.
Search
Humberside Police's marine unit has carried out a sonar search of the River Ouse but has been delayed from making an underwater search due to fast-flowing water. The search is scheduled for next Monday or Tuesday.
Mr Baker is described as white, around 5ft 9in tall, of slim build and with curly, dark brown hair.
He was wearing a striped work shirt when he was last seen.
Police said Mr Baker's disappearance was a complete mystery and have pledged not to give up the search for him.
Anyone with information can contact North Yorkshire Police on 101, selecting option 1, to pass details on under reference number 12120213721.
