Organisations that have a focus on staff wellbeing improve their employees’ overall health and increase workplace performance. Employers that invest in Wellbeing at Work Schemes have less absenteeism and create a positive workplace culture.
Come to our event to hear about the experiences of organisations that have already signed up to Wellbeing at Work Schemes and their work towards an accredited Wellbeing at Work Award. You will learn how you can become a Wellbeing at Work Champion for your organisation. We are keen to hear your suggestions for information that would be useful to put in a Staff Wellness Handbook and a Wellness at Work Plan for staff.
