Stress and work-related anxiety are very real problems for business owners and their employees, costing the economy millions of pounds a year due to reduced productivity and sick leave.

 

As with a lot of health related issues, promotion and prevention is better, and cheaper, than cure! By looking after your people, you are also looking after the future and finances of your business.

Healthy hearts and bright minds!

A recent study by the UK Government highlights how an improvement in employee wellbeing really does impact positively on workplace performance, profitability and quality of output or service.

Employees who are better able to manage their work-life balance, tackle stress and make positive lifestyle choices are the same people who will bring the necessary energy and drive to keep your business moving forward.
