A healthy and happy workforce is a more productive workforce
A growing body of evidence points to a positive relationship between employee wellbeing and productivity and documents it as a causal effect says a global survey conducted by Ipsos on behalf of Aon in order to understand how companies are addressing wellbeing and how a wellbeing program would impact company performance.
Globally, 82% say employee wellbeing is important at their company. The countries that are most likely to say wellbeing is important to their company are Finland (89%), Czech Republic (88%), Norway (88%), and New Zealand (88%). On the other hand, countries that are least likely to say wellbeing is important are Puerto Rico (67%), Ecuador (63%), and Peru (63%).
Top employee wellbeing issues globally include work-life balance (65%), mental health (46%), working environment/culture (44%), physical health (35%), and burnout (33%). Across regions, work-life balance is the top employee wellbeing issue followed by mental health in North America, Latin America, and EMEA. Working environment/culture is the second top issue in APAC. In North America, burnout is the third top issue and in the other regions, burnout is the fifth top issue.
