Why should you care about the well-being of your employees?

We are seeing a massive shift in the current global workforce as well: Productivity, morale and engagement are down, and people are leaving their jobs at a higher rate than ever before.

The pandemic has had some unexpected side effects; a recent study found that 73% of workers are actively thinking about quitting their jobs. And millions have already done so last year alone.

​On top of that parents, especially mothers, are leaving the workforce at a much higher rate.
But do the problems we are seeing in the workforce stretch much further than we think?

What is going on behind closed doors?

The last few years have taken a toll on all of us. Burnout, depression and suicide rates are the highest they have been in decades. And companies can no longer ignore the well-being of their staff if they want to retain their talent.

With almost three-quarters of the workforce is considering leaving, it is important to understand what is going on behind closed doors. Research confirms the huge amount of workers are unhappy with the current situation and these shocking numbers don’t lie:

• 54 % feel overworked
• 39 % feel exhausted
• 20 % say their employer doesn't care about their work-life balance

Every year we spend billions on health-related absence costs

The healthcare costs of job-related burnout are currently guesstimated between $125-$190 billion in the US and £45 billion in the UK per year. This is a rise of 16 % since 2016 - an extra 6 𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯 a year. Which is about £1666 per employee per year!

On top of that, the average turnovers cost companies 33% of the employee's salary. Every year we flush money down the drain to cover these costs whilst there are preventative programs and initiate that could be introduced to significantly reduce these expenses.

What can we do to change?

When company culture, morale and engagement is down, employees will leave and expenses increase. If the problem is not fixed, it is an expensive cycle that is unnecessary.
For many of us, just earning a pay check and working hard isn't enough to feel satisfied in a job anymore.

Employees are looking for new ground-breaking ways forward that will support their work-life balance and wellbeing.
​
If you care about the business and the bottom line, it is important you act now, because it is an expensive "joke" not to care about the well-being of your employees.

Look at the data

At Grant Method, we propose a 5-phased approach to help your employees to be healthier, happier & more efficient as it is the way to drive better results & cut costs.

1. The first phase is focused on inspecting the existing processes to avoid stress-related absence and turnover costs. This can be done via a survey or viewing other data like exit interviews etc.
2. In phase 2, we establish the status quo including the collected data from phase 1.
   
3. After phases 1 & 2, we will create a new success strategy that is in line with the company goals.
   
4. Before moving forward to implement these new changes, we make sure the leadership team receives the support to be able to implement these changes easily.
   
5. Once we move into the final phase, the leadership team will receive continuous support to implement their unique Success Framework effectively.

conclusion

If we want to lead our team into the future we have to make mental health, well-being and work-life balance part of the quarterly and yearly objectives.

Because when we put people before profit, and family first, things don't fall apart, things will fall together. 

It's time to normalise life beyond the desk.
