Employee Well-being Takes Center Stage

Look at this: businesses who invest in their employees’ health and happiness enjoy a significant uptick in revenue per employee of 11% and an incredible 28% increase in returns to shareholders. SFlexible work hours, mental health days, and mindfulness programmes are just a few of the interesting new initiatives that are popping up as companies ramp up their support for employees’ mental health. As far as the workplace goes, prioritizing people appears to be the way of the future.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Initiatives Gain Momentum
