The importance of employee wellbeing for your organisation & teams

Promoting wellbeing can help prevent stress and create positive working environments where individuals and organisations can thrive. Good health and wellbeing can be a core enabler of employee engagement and organisational performance.

Increase retention

Employees who rated their employer’s commitment to wellness as good or excellent were 75% more likely to say they were loyal to a business. (The Employment Hero Wellness Report 2022).

Reduce burnout

Burnout, a sense of extreme fatigue caused by chronic stress, is spreading. The Employment Hero Wellness Report 2022 shows that 58% of employees said burnout had affected them.

Build happier teams

The Future Workplace 2021 HR Sentiment survey found that 68% of senior HR leaders (of which 40% were CHROs) rated employee well-being and mental health as a top priority.

Push a pulse survey to check in with colleagues

Use frequent pulse surveys to assess employee wellbeing overall, and to ask specific questions
The answers to these surveys can help you identify where changes need to be made, spot interesting or unexpected trends, and even see red flags to provide help and support where needed

Celebrate people, not just productivity

Find ways to recognise a job well done or contributions that reflect the greater purpose of your company, rather than focusing purely on tactical success
Achieving certain production or service goals should be recognised, but so should smaller daily acts of kindness, courage, and integrity
Create a culture where employees know that they are valued beyond their ability to do their jobs and are encouraged to recognise each other
