Building a culture of wellness, and not just offering a wellness program, is a way to engage employees. After all, a truly effective work culture is one that enables employees to work to the best of their ability by creating a supportive and energizing environment.
The “Consumer Health POV 2017” survey found Americans to be highly stressed, with respondents under 45 being the most stressed and those over 45 being sleep-deprived. Stress, or burnout, can lead to a number of chronic health disorders and nonproductive behavior such as absenteeism and lateness. Financial instability is the biggest generator of stress in the workplace, especially among younger generations. The survey concludes that every generation in the workplace needs total well-being support from employers.
