According to WorldatWork,
organizations’ health and wellness offerings have expanded beyond traditional
programs, which primarily focus on physical health, to integrated well-being
programs that include mental and emotional health, financial health, work-life
effectiveness, and workplace environment and stress. The Total Rewards and
Employee Well-Being Survey report summarizes the results of a survey of
WorldatWork members to gather information about current trends in well-being
practices.
According to the report, among prevalent well-being program
categories, the top elements employers support are:
- Stress-related: EAP resource and referral = 80%
- Workplace environment: Safety = 73%
- Health-related: Immunizations = 73%
- Work-life balance: Vacation time use encouraged = 66%
- Financial health: Retirement education = 57%
The survey also found:
- 96% of surveyed employers offer employer-sponsored healthcare and 94% offer well-being programs.
- 77% expect to increase the number of well-being programs and activities offered.
- Most report that well-being programs have a measurable positive impact on employee engagement (87%), employee satisfaction (84%) and productivity (76%).
