Main Article Content
Abstract
In the context of the increasingly competitive environment of modern business, programs for the improvement of employees’ health are considered to be one of the key tools to enhance organisational performance. Specifically, this paper seeks to examine the correlation between wellbeing policies whereby organizations seek to promote the wellness of their employees through providing the necessary resources such as free, accessible mental health support, flexible working and fitness options, stress management seminars or workshops and their correlation with outputs such as productivity, employees’ morale, their satisfaction, and their retention rates among others. Thus, the objective of this paper is to show that by addressing the multifaceted aspect of the staff members’ well-being, not only does organisational productivity and creativity increase, but morale does too. This is made possible by assessing different empirical research articles and organisational case studies. Thus, get Arguments Completion Wellness Programs study illustrates that with investment in complete well-being programs, organizational performance results are enhanced, organizational climate is beneficial, and people attend work regularly, thus contributing to organizational commitment. The conclusion made at the end of the study is that, thus, promoting resilience and ensuring continued organizational success in today’s workplace means integrating well-being into corporate planning. This is very essential in development of sustainability.
