Enhancing health and wellbeing in the workplace
We spend nearly a third of our lives at work, so it’s no surprise that our jobs can impact our overall wellbeing. Employers are, now more than ever, recognising that supporting mental and physical wellbeing in the workplace not only leads to a happier workforce, but also improved employee retention, engagement and productivity.
These days, employee wellbeing initiatives go beyond team away days and gym memberships. Providing employees with multi-faceted tools that can improve their wellbeing in all aspects of their life will help them remain focused and engaged at work.
We're here help you kick-start employee wellbeing initiatives that will actually make a difference. Discover our hand-picked articles on how to support mental health, manage stress, promote financial wellbeing and more in this month's newsletter.
