Healthy mind, healthy business: the game-changing benefits of staff wellbeing workshops
In today's fast-paced and demanding work environments, employee wellbeing is no longer just a buzzword but a critical aspect of a thriving and successful business.
Smart employers know that organisations are only as strong as their people – they depend on having a healthy and productive workforce. They know that people perform better when they feel able to put everything into their job and are confident, motivated and completely focused on doing that.
However, with over 75% of UK employees feeling stressed it is no surprise that businesses are seeking ways to improve wellbeing at work.
Improving staff wellbeing has become a top priority. But what do we mean by staff wellbeing and why is it so important? Find out below.
What is staff wellbeing and why is it important?
Staff wellbeing refers to the overall health, happiness, and satisfaction of individuals in the workplace.
It encompasses both physical and mental aspects, ensuring that employees feel supported, valued, and motivated in their roles.
Improving staff wellbeing at work is essential for both individuals and businesses. A healthy mind leads to a healthy business, as it positively impacts productivity, job satisfaction, and overall performance. Basically, the healthier and happier you are, the more productive you are in the workplace.
How good is your wellbeing strategy?
To support their team’s wellbeing, most businesses develop a wellbeing strategy. This strategy ensures that they are nurturing their team’s physical, mental and financial wellbeing. The strategy can include structured events, such as 1-2-1s with line managers and team-building activities, to providing access to services such as mental health support lines.
If you’re not sure whether your wellbeing strategy is covering every aspect of your team’s wellbeing as best you can, then it's best to audit your existing strategy.
We have created a guide that takes you through the process of auditing your existing strategy, before helping you to select activities, services and products that might enhance it.
