Are your workers thriving or surviving?
Are your workers thriving or surviving?
What are you doing to ensure your colleagues are thriving and not just surviving?
Protecting employee wellbeing just makes good business sense. Research has shown again and again that happy employees are more loyal, more productive, more present, and more successful in their roles.
Ensuring that the four pillars of wellbeing – physical, mental, financial, and social health – are taken care of will ensure that you’re giving your business the best chance of flourishing.
Setting up a wellbeing strategy for yourself or your business doesn’t need to be complicated. It can even be as easy as A, B, C.
A is for assess and audit
Are there any existing benefits in place at your company that could aid employee wellbeing? Whether that’s insurance, HR policies, health and safety programmes, or learning and development. If so, have you clearly signposted your employees to them? Do your employees know they exist? If you use the four pillars, you can easily identify any gaps in what you’re offering.
B is for brand and build
Giving your wellbeing strategy a brand means it is easily identifiable to your colleagues and they know that any comms under the brand will be linked to their wellbeing, and the business caring about them as individuals. You can then start to build the strategy using the findings from stage ‘A’.
C is for connect and commitment
Connecting with employees, and your employees connecting with the strategy, is essential. You will need to use all the communication channels available to you to ensure maximum engagement. Communications must be direct, clear, easily identifiable, honest and speak to your employees.
