Employee reward and benefits news
Health and wellbeing employee benefits lacking?
A third of British workers think their managers do not care about workplace wellbeing, new research shows, pointing to a lack of health employee benefits in UK offices.
The study, conducted by the British Heart Foundation (BHF), also found that two thirds of respondents claimed that their organisation does not offer any employee benefits to help them keep fit.
Furthermore, some 11 per cent of workers fail to get any exercise on an average day, while over a third also said they take one or more sick days during a typical month.
In an effort to improve workplace health, the BHF has launched a Health at Work programme, which it is encouraging businesses to join.
Lisa Purcell, prpject manager for health and work at the institution, said: "Employers must realise that a healthy workforce is key to less stress, better team work and improved motivation, which results in increased productivity and fewer sick days."
