The health system is ailing. How can employers help?

Our data shows that employees with high burnout risk are 35% more likely to visit their GP. Given that burnout is 100% driven by the workplace, and with the NHS in crisis, employers have an important role to play in supporting employee wellbeing.

Here are some ways to support employee wellbeing effectively:

• The board needs to be on board. Change will only happen at the right pace and at the right scale with senior stakeholder buy in.
• Data is central to everything. You need it to identify the drivers of poor employee well-being within the organisation and to present the potential commercial impact of inaction.
• Do not underestimate the power of using the right data to make small, practical changes in many places. Work with employees to design and implement these changes and the effects will be both long lasting and compounding with respect to a healthier, more productive workplace.

At Peopleful, our diagnostic tool can help organisations gain a comprehensive understanding of their people risks and forecast their impact.
