Wellbeing in the Workplace
Preventing Employee Stress, Burnout, and Chronic Disease
A healthy workforce is essential to productivity and can reduce costs associated with burnout, turnover, absenteeism, and poor health.
- 76% of workers report symptoms of depression and anxiety.
- Chronic stress costs nearly $200 billion in medical payments each year.
- Poor worker health costs U.S. employers $575 billion per year due to lost productivity, worker absence, and workers compensation.
- 90% of the nation's $4.1 trillion in annual healthcare costs are related to preventable chronic conditions.
Integrating wellness into the workplace culture can result in healthier and happier employees. This can be accomplished through workplace wellness programs that:
- Offer flexible, personalized approaches
- Prioritize mental health and emotional resilience
- Offer stress management tools, such as mindfulness
- Support habits related to healthy eating and fitness
- Create opportunities for engagement and connection
- Leverage digital tools
