What Really Works for Improving Employee Wellbeing in the Workplace
Your Wellbeing at Work Matters
Nobody needs to be reminded that you spend the majority of your waking life at work. Your job has the capacity to impact your mental health (and by extension, your physical health) as much as — if not more than — any other aspect of your world.
Impact of Workplace Culture
- Wellbeing initiatives fail to address high rates of staff burnout and poor mental health.
- Traditional wellness programs do not effectively enhance worker welfare.
- Research data shows a lack of success in workplace wellbeing initiatives.
Employee wellbeing is crucial, but current strategies are not meeting the necessary standards.
Strategies that Work
- Implementing limits on working hours and offering mental health support are key.
- Providing adequate breaks and paid time off for community service are impactful.
- Gen Z workers emphasize human-centered leadership and psychological safety.
It's time to rethink how workplace wellbeing is approached to truly support employee welfare.
