The case for Wellbeing
It is now accepted that mental health & wellbeing and business productivity are inextricably linked, with clear evidence
demonstrating that effective wellbeing strategies create increased employee engagement and motivation, sustain morale
and positively impact the bottom line.
While employers have recognised this, and are investing more than ever in wellbeing solutions, recent research has shown
that this investment is not having the desired positive return on mental health & wellbeing.
In fact, the number of working days lost per person due to absenteeism or presenteeism has increased from 23 to 30
days (Britain’s Healthiest Workplaces, 2017). This is borne out by the latest research into workplace wellbeing across the
UK and Ireland:
Real, Measurable Results
Investing in employee wellbeing brings measurable, positive change to workplaces:
Positive change in wellbeing
Up to 70% significant and meaningful positive change in wellbeing.*
Less Absent Employees
Up to 19% reduction in hours lost because of absence due to personal problems.**
Increased productivity
Up to 26% improvement on presenteeism.**
Improved life satisfaction
Up to 22% increase in life satisfaction.**
*Derived from CORE-NET based on upwards of 8,000 employees from across sectors who attended a minimum of 2 counselling sessions.
**Derived from the Workplace Outcome Suite (WOS) - the gold standard metric of workplace performance endorsed by EAPA - completed by the employee before and after counselling.
As part of Inspire, our work is led by our guiding principles: We want to build a flourishing society in which all people have access to services and support appropriate to their mental health and wellbeing needs. To achieve this we will promote, support and explore flourishing mental wellbeing throughout society. We are an exceptional organisation marked by excellence, efficiency and innovation.
