Across the UK, wellbeing is under strain, with organisations navigating a convergence of pressures.
Consider this:
- 56 per cent of workers are burnt out,
- 33 per cent lack motivation
- Nearly four in five (79 per cent) regularly feel stressed.
- Physical inactivity ranks as one of the top ten causes of disease and disability
These challenges can have direct financial implications on organisations. Poor mental health is costing UK employers an estimated £51 billion per year, with “presenteeism” representing £24 billion in annual losses. Overall, workplace sickness is now costing businesses over £100 billion annually in lost productivity.
Forward-thinking organisations today are embracing a proactive, prevention-focused approach that helps energise employees daily, fosters healthy habits and delivers measurable value for everyone involved.
This isn’t just compassionate leadership. It’s a smart business strategy. The returns speak for themselves – research by Deloitte has found employers that invest in comprehensive employee support can experience measurable gains in productivity, lower absenteeism and stronger retention.
This ebook explores how employers can transform their approach to workforce support through a comprehensive model that anticipates risks, empowers employees and responds effectively when challenges arise. At each stage, it will highlight the services that can make a real, tangible difference to both employers and employees, along with the measurable impact that results.
