Workplace Wellbeing Programmes
To recruit and retain a good workforce nowadays, a company can't just offer a secure job and a decent wage.
In today's world, businesses who want to thrive need to consider the overall work environment and what the company is doing to provide for their staff’s mental and physical wellbeing.
A recent survey by Mind showed that 60% of workers said they would feel more motivated if their employer took action to support their mental wellbeing.
One in four people experience a mental health problem in the UK each year – so the likelihood is high that someone in your workplace is struggling with stress, anxiety or depression right now.
The result of this in the workplace is low productivity and creativity, as well as high levels of stress-related absenteeism.
This results in employees feeling under-valued, which means they lack loyalty to the company, and this leads to a high turnover of staff – with the inherent waste of well-trained employees and the high cost and disruption of replacing them that this entails.
However, if a company introduces suitable employee wellbeing initiatives, it will boost employee performance in a number of ways:
It enhances their creativity and problem-solving abilities.
It impacts positively on their attitude to work, leading to greater collaboration and social co-operation.
It improves their health, which means less sick days, a more energetic approach to their job and increased loyalty to the company as they feel properly valued.
How can we help?
We offer a range of unique, effective nature-based workplace wellbeing practices.
These start with our unique, confidential 'MOT' assessment for each member of staff to complete should they wish. This enables them to see for themselves how they are doing and then should they wish they can make contact direct with us to see how we can help.
Under our 'Yew Group' corporate services programmes, we offer a range of nature-based workplace wellbeing practices which combine millennia of proven results along with the most up-to-date research from around the world.
Team Building
Covid saw the workplace take on a very different look, with many of us working from home. It has now become the norm for many to continue working most if not all the time at home, but this has come at a cost.
Loneliness, isolation, and a sense of being disconnected is being suffered by a large number of people. Everyone knows that if a team is to work well together they need to be connected to be strong.
Team building is nothing new and there are countless ways to achieve this, but we offer a very different way to help your team not only connect between themselves, but also to nature.
There are many good reasons why it is beneficial for your business, your staff and you to bring Nature Connectivity into your lives.
Beyond helping you meet your environmental, social and governance targets and comply with legislation, employee engagement in this area can benefit your wider business.
There are positive financial benefits which include increased productivity and less absenteeism, giving your business a competitive edge.
It also lowers your costs, boosts brand image and loyalty, and attracts and retains the best talent.
A happy healthy, involved work force creates a happy healthy business and all this is good for your bottom line.
