“Employee engagement is closely tied to
health and wellbeing” … “A mounting
body of evidence strongly suggests
wellbeing is an ESSENTIAL aspect of
engagement” - HR Magazine
"Total number of working days lost due to work
related stress, depression or anxiety was 11.7
million days."
"Stress accounted for 37% of all work related ill
health cases and 45% of all working days lost due to
ill health."
UK LABOUR FORCE SURVEY (LFS) 2015/16
THE BUSINESSCOST OF 'STRESS':
People at work may not be‘chronically stressed’ (that youcan tell) — however: a constantstream of micro-stressesdeplete individual engagementand performance.
Most definitely — if they’re done right.
And it can be quite straightforward
without requiring big budgets...
Head of Hay Group Insight Sam Dawson
found 82% of employees scored above
the norm for engagement when the
organisation “demonstrated care and
concern” for employee wellbeing.
Achieving maximum employee engagementdoes not come from salary incentivesor from performance objectives.
FLEXIBILITY: Giving flexibility and diversity in agile
project teams.
PURPOSE: Connecting employee’s work to broader
operations and strategy.
DEVELOPMENT: More informal and experiential on-
the-job learning, coaching and real-time feedback.
