The importance of workplace wellbeing has become increasingly recognised in recent years as it has been recorded that over 6 million working days are lost each year, with another 12 million days of reduced productivity (presenteeism) due to poor workplace wellbeing. With an estimated 1 in 4 employees affected by a mental health problem such as stress, depression and anxiety long-term absenteeism can be costly. Likewise, poor physical health has been linked to illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, which also impact upon the workplace. This is especially important to take into consideration as the UK workforce is formed from a high percentage of workers aged over 50, including a growth in the numbers of people aged over 65 that remain in work. From an organisational perspective, managers who address and adopt a culture of employee wellbeing understand the role it has in reducing absenteeism, improving employee productivity and retention, as well as developing the overall health and wellbeing of their employees.
