Why workplace wellbeing matters
Workplace wellbeing is about how employees feel at work, day-to-day. Organisations that prioritise workplace wellbeing foster belonging, empower their people, and invest in growth, creating a culture where employees feel engaged, motivated, and able to do their best.
The data is clear:
- Employers with strong wellbeing programmes see higher performance.
- Oxford University research links employee wellbeing to stronger valuations, returns, and profits.
- Indeed’s Work Wellbeing 100 shows companies prioritising wellbeing outperform stock market benchmarks.
Ibec helps organisations put this evidence into action, embedding wellbeing into strategy to improve employees’ day-to-day experience and strengthen performance, culture, and long-term success.
