Employee health and wellbeing is no longer just a consideration – it’s a business imperative. As organisations face growing healthcare challenges, they’re recognising that a proactive approach to workplace wellbeing isn’t just about support; it’s about prevention. By fostering a culture of health, businesses can help stop minor issues from escalating, boost employee happiness, and enhance productivity. The result? Fewer absences, a more engaged workforce, and a stronger bottom line. In short, investing in your employees’ wellbeing isn’t just the right thing to do – it’s the smart thing to do.
NHS waiting lists in England reached a record high in September 2024, and October was the busiest on record for A&E departments.
Ongoing shortages of dentists and GPs mean that there are not enough healthcare practitioners to meet demand. Employers are concerned rising NHS waiting times may result in employees taking long absences or permanently leaving work due to sickness.
Adding to this growing challenge, one in four people in England will experience a mental health problem each year, and one in six will report a common issue like anxiety or depression in any given week.
The work environment plays a crucial role in mental health, and employers addressing these issues is salient for increasing employee retainment and productivity.
