Free workforce wellbeing programme
Our free "How are you?" programme offers a practical solution to support employees' mental, emotional, and physical health. It is available for businesses with 10+ employees. The programme offers a framework and resources to create a culture of openness around wellbeing, so employees feel comfortable seeking support.
Workforce wellbeing is vital to an organisation's success. In the UK, poor mental wellbeing costs employers an estimated £42-45 billion each year. When employees feel supported and valued, they are more motivated, engaged, and productive. Investing in wellbeing programmes not only improves individual health. It also drives business outcomes by:
- reducing absenteeism
- reducing turnover
- increasing job satisfaction
- boosting retention
Work-related stress, depression, and anxiety led to 17.1 million lost workdays in 2022/23. A healthy workforce is more focused, productive, and engaged. When employees feel their mental and physical needs are a priority, they are more loyal and dedicated.
Offering wellbeing support also demonstrates that an organisation cares for its people. This improves morale and enhances its reputation as a responsible employer.
In a competitive market, prioritising employee wellbeing can set a business apart. Embracing the "How are you?" programme is an investment in the long-term success of employees and the organisation.
