Continuous change requires constant care
As we move into March, it’s important to recognise the trends shaping our workforces' wellbeing, with rising barriers to healthcare and increasing severe weather events. More people are delaying GP visits due to cost and wait times, with the rate doubling in just a year. At the same time, extreme weather continues to disrupt communities, with a heightened risk of major storms this season. Our thoughts are with the people in QLD and NSW affected by Cyclone Alfred at this time. If you're a Sonder member, please remember to keep your location and notification settings turned on at all times (if possible), so that you can continue to receive Safety Notices and utilise the different safety features on the app.
Access to care, whether medical, mental health, or safety-related, has never been more critical. At Sonder, we’re committed to making support immediate and accessible, helping organisations build resilience during ongoing disruption.
Inside this edition, we take you behind the scenes of Sonder’s 24/7 Support Centre and share insights on how primary healthcare challenges affect businesses. Plus, we introduce Sonder GP Connect, designed to provide faster, more affordable healthcare access for your employees.
Sonder GP Connect: Improving access to primary healthcare
Access to medical support is more challenging than ever, with long wait times and rising costs causing many employees to delay or skip essential treatments. This leads to serious health risks, lost productivity, and added strain on teams and workplaces.
That’s why we’ve introduced Sonder GP Connect – a faster, more affordable way for your team to connect with expert medical support in minutes, all through the Sonder app.
With Sonder GP Connect, your business can:
? Provide fast, easy access to medical care
? Reduce absenteeism and workplace disruptions
? Support a healthier, more engaged workforce
