Corporate wellness programs

Promoting holistic wellbeing at all levels of the organisation for a happier, healthier, and more productive workforce

The health and wellbeing of your workforce is critical to the success of the business. What’s more, when employees have access to a wide range of benefits, they tend to be healthier, more productive, and more loyal.

For example, Mercer Marsh Benefits’ Health on Demand survey 2023 found that when employees receive ten or more benefits: 72% are less likely to move elsewhere; 93% are confident they can afford the healthcare they and their family need; and 82% are thriving in their current role.

So how can you ensure your corporate wellness program is holistic and meets the needs of your workforce?

It’s important to address the four main parts of wellbeing:

• Physical health: Employers that proactively mitigate health issues through targeted interventions drive positive business outcomes.
• Mental wellbeing: 51% of employees say quality mental health support is difficult to find or access. Employers can help — and our research shows it will mean a lot to the workforce if they do.
• Financial wellness: 41% of employees would highly value access to financial wellness and financial planning tools.
• Social wellbeing: Over 40% of employees say they want resources to assist with caregiving for children (42%), parents, or other adults (41%).
