Building a comprehensive strategy across the four pillars of well-being
Since the start of the global pandemic, employee health has moved rapidly up the corporate agenda. Firms are beginning to understand that caring for employees is both productive and cost-effective.
This shift has highlighted the need for benefits professionals to work with colleagues in occupational health and safety, risk management, talent acquisition and human resource (HR) delivery to create a comprehensive approach to well-being.
To be effective, well-being should be a complete strategy that encompasses benefits, workforce engagement, and company culture, rather than a checklist of individual initiatives.

Strong well-being strategies benefit employers, employees, and greater society.
