Now in its tenth year, REBA’s Health and Wellbeing Research 2025 will launch at the REBA Congress 2025 on 19 June. 

This year’s research uncovers how employers are evolving their health and wellbeing strategies – shifting their focus to prevention, investing in digital health tools to improve access and speed of care, and exploring how wellbeing data can better support wider people risk planning and future cost control.

Featuring responses from 284 businesses - collectively representing 1.6 million employees - along with case studies and expert views from industry insiders, this year’s research is not to be missed.

AXA Health will be running a masterclass at the REBA Congress 2025 highlighting key findings from the research and the need to leverage innovation to improve the employee experience and drive better health outcomes.

This year’s REBA Congress offers a packed agenda with a dynamic mix of inspiration and learning – delivering strategic insights alongside practical, hands-on guidance.

It comes just as many employers begin to sense-check their benefits offerings to maintain their most vital workplace perks, while others try to manage the impact of big rises in payroll costs.

As societal health declines and medical and protection benefit costs soar, businesses face a perfect storm threatening productivity, performance and profitability. 

Add rising employee financial pressures, and the message is clear: proactive support and strategic prevention are vital.

That’s why the REBA Congress 2025 is focussing on health, wellbeing and people risk through a sustainability and resilience lens to make sure employers can address skills and talent gaps, manage an ageing workforce, and optimise spend.
