Enhancing Employee Wellness at Capital Bank

The workplace environment is one of the most critical factors affecting employee well-being and productivity. Recognizing this, Capital Bank has placed special emphasis on improving the workplace environment to enhance the mental health of its employees, which is seen as the cornerstone of the bank’s progress and success.

Recently, we have intensified our efforts to enhance wellness endeavors by designing a comprehensive corporate wellness strategy, collaborating with top-tier service providers. This collaboration has led to the development of an interactive wellness program and a dedicated wellness app that focuses on the holistic well-being of our team, covering mental, physical, emotional, and financial health.

Statistics underscore the importance of the work environment on employee health, with 57% of workers considering a genuine balance between personal and work life as a decisive factor when choosing an employer. Additionally, more than 90% of employees highly value companies that offer mental health support. This drives our commitment to cultivating a work environment that prioritizes employee well-being.

As Haya Abu Ata, Capital Bank’s Group Chief Human Resources Officer, states, “this comprehensive approach includes conducting necessary studies to identify factors affecting employees and determining the key topics that will serve as pillars for our plan. Through the diverse initiatives we are holding with Kun – our wellness partner-, we aim to enrich the workplace environment, promote a healthy work-life balance, and build a supportive and connected work community.”

The wellness app is a cornerstone of this program, providing employees with easy access to resources that support their overall well-being. We are committed not only to physical health but also to mental and emotional well-being. Financial wellness is also a primary focus, with Capital Bank providing the necessary support and resources to help employees effectively manage their finances, plan confidently for their financial future, and achieve the desired financial stability, contributing to their sense of security and confidence in their financial decisions.

This comprehensive wellness approach is a testament to our dedication to maintaining Capital Bank's culture and enhancing the overall well-being of our employees. We believe that by investing in the health and happiness of our team, we can drive the bank's sustained growth and success.
