Creating a company culture where company values, goals and practices are shared with their employees inevitably helps employees to see the direction the company is heading and what they’re doing to achieve their goals. This gives employees a sense of purpose; a way to bring meaning to their work and understand the contributions they are making to the company.

Create a thriving wellbeing culture

For a wellbeing culture to thrive, it is essential that companies embed wellbeing within their company culture. Company culture isn’t a written document that people adhere to, it is an unseen energy that exists within that workplace.

Business success, or failure, is determined by a company’s culture. To add to this, company cultures are the very essence of what determines successful employee wellbeing programmes. A poor culture can hamper even the most well thought out of employee wellbeing strategies. Showing that the business cares for and supports all aspects of employee wellbeing, and not just the bottom line, is essential to the success of the programme.

Invest in Your Team's Wellbeing

An effective wellbeing culture gives employees the opportunity to grow both professionally and personally.

It is not a new concept that there are strong links between employee engagement and workplace wellbeing. It does appear that many businesses lack the hard evidence that their wellbeing programmes actually deliver a good ROI. Without understanding what employees need, wellbeing initiatives will not provide companies with the sustainable wellbeing culture they need to flourish and succeed.
