In today’s always-on work environment, ensuring employees are able to perform to their full potential presents a significant challenge for many businesses. There are many factors that can affect productivity, but it’s crucial you have measures in place to optimise employee physical and mental health as the foundation for success.
CUSP’s 2020 study found a clear correlation between employee wellbeing and higher levels of productivity. An effective wellbeing strategy that prioritises your employee’s needs can have a significant impact on productivity and your bottom line, helping you to:
Reduce stress
Wellbeing initiatives can reduce stress levels, improving employees’ mental health.
Boost employee morale
When employees feel supported and valued, they are more likely to be engaged and motivated at work.
Increase resilience
Employees who are physically and mentally healthy are better equipped to handle challenges and recover from setbacks.
Improve focus and concentration
Improve employees’ concentration so they can focus on their work.
Reduce absenteeism and presenteeism
When employees are physically and mentally healthy, they’re more likely to be fully present at work and less likely to be absent.
Improve work-life balance
Help employees feel satisfied so they can bring their whole selves to work.
Improve workplace culture and productivity
86% of UK employees say they’re productive at work if there’s a good culture.
Our 2021 Coping After Covid report found that for organisations with a wellbeing programme in place, 43% of HR managers rated employee productivity as ‘very good’. This figure fell to 18% in organisations with no wellbeing programme.
