What Is The Purpose Of
Your Employee Well- Being Solution?

Perhaps it is a perk to attract top talent, like a state of the art fitness facility or healthy meals in the cafeteria. Or maybe you need to decrease health insurance claims and premiums.

Sometimes you simply have a new executive who really wants to make an impact on employee health and productivity and champions a new program.

None of the above are bad reasons to pursue employee wellbeing. But a successful wellbeing solution can accomplish even more.

Having a workforce that brings their best selves to work everyday – physically, mentally, and emotionally – also impacts workplace culture and your bottom line.

Employee well-being affects the entire employee experience:

  1. How employees feel about their leaders and the company,
  2. How they work with each other and your customers, and …
  3. Ultimately, whether or not your company is a great place to work.

Join Alex Lovell, (LinkedIn profile) Manager of Research and Assessment at O.C. Tanner, as he shares new research on the current state of employee wellbeing and how it impacts a company’s culture.

During the webcast, you’ll hear:

  • The latest research on the current state of wellbeing and which wellbeing solutions actually work
  • How employee wellbeing can improve your company’s culture and employee experience
  • Why wellbeing and recognition should be done together

Learn why employee wellbeing needs to be part of a bigger culture strategy, and how wellbeing and employee appreciation go hand-in-hand.
