Why Investing in Employee Well-Being is Good for Business

October 18, 2024

Well-being is when people are in a state of being comfortable, healthy, and happy. It encompasses physical, mental, and emotional health, as well as a sense of purpose and fulfillment in life. Many things contribute to a person’s feeling of well-being, including positive relationships, a healthy lifestyle, a sense of belonging and even their jobs.

For many people, balancing responsibilities at work and at home can have a big impact on their well-being. Employers can help their employees by supporting them with a whole-person approach. This is crucial to ensuring that their teams are well-equipped to manage stress, anxiety and other challenges.

But the benefits of a comprehensive well-being strategy go even further — it’s good for business. An employee’s well-being can be a factor in their productivity level, engagement, and company loyalty.
