Investing in a wellbeing strategy from Barnett Waddingham on Vimeo.

Workforce wellbeing should be an integral part of any corporate strategy. Understanding and improving your employees’ happiness and wellbeing is essential to the health of your organisation – and the employment experience, contribution and value of your employees. Our approach is based on the Eudaimonia philosophy: a state of happiness which translates as “human flourishing”.

We believe that there are six pillars of wellbeing: ‘my job’; ‘financial security’; ‘health’; ‘protection’; ‘support’; and ‘work/life balance’. By implementing a successful wellbeing strategy which addresses the needs of the workforce across each of the six pillars, this can have significant benefits to the employer, including: 

  • increased productivity;
  • decreased absence;
  • reduced accidents;
  • engagement and commitment;
  • attraction and retention;
  • and reduced insurance premiums.
