So now more than ever employee health and well-being is key.
Employee health and wellbeing is a vital weapon for any successful company.
Your team are people and I believe that putting them first helps to inspire productive and smart work.
Happy employees equal productive employees.
Employees who are stressed, run down, disillusioned and marginalised will not only exude lower morale but could also lead to higher employee turnover and recruitment costs.
According to a CIPD survey of more than 1000 HR professionals, bosses who take employee health and wellbeing seriously enjoy a healthier and more inclusive culture (35%) and lower staff sickness (31%).
So what can you do as business owners:
Develop a health and well-being strategy, regardless of the size of your company. Ensure you have a plan and therefore activities in place.
Helping staff to positively manage or overcome health and wellbeing concerns will reinforce trust and respect.
The more they feel that you’ve got their back, the more eager and ready they are to perform.
As business owners how are you supporting your employees health and well-being?
