    Workplace Wellbeing and Retirement Planning

    Alright, alright, don’t all roll your eyes and yawn at once! Even we here at WellWise were a little bit unsure how this one would go, but it turned out, surprisingly, to be one of our favourite episodes yet. Why? Because it tackled why we all yawn, eye roll, and disengage whenever anyone mentions the dreaded ‘p’ word, and why that is causing us a lot of totally unavoidable stress and anxiety and placing a huge burden on our organizations. It was also one of our favourites because the solutions to this challenge are sooooooo simple and the upside for everyone both financially and in terms of a wellbeing uplift are HUGE! Easy wellbeing boosters always get lots of kudos from us! Whether you are an individual (employed, self-employed, or unemployed) concerned about your financial future or a business leader seeking simple ways to increase employee retention, engagement, and loyalty, tune in to hear our discussion with Pete Hykin, all about the world of pensions and workplace wellbeing. We promise it is nowhere near as boring as it sounds, and guaranteed to be super helpful!

    Whitepaper: Understanding workplace wellbeing 2.0; A strategically integrated approach

    In this groundbreaking whitepaper we share the latest scientific and real-world evidence supporting the emergence of a new approach to workplace wellbeing. In particular, the paper highlights and evidences three new pillars of understanding in the field: Current interventions and approaches to workplace wellbeing are commonly underperforming.Wellbeing can no longer be treated as a cost-centre but rather a key strategic driver if it is to contribute positively to the bottom line and deliver meaningful impact.Integrated wellbeing must focus not just on the employees but also the overall health of the organization and its wider external environment.“In most organizations wellbeing is delivered as a stand-alone programme. This bolt-on approach to wellbeing misses out on a wealth of opportunities and benefits that a more strategic and integrated approach could be delivering.”
