WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
According to a study by Deloitte, workplace burnout affects as many as 70% of employees (and 8 out 10 millennials). The American Psychological Association cites burned-out employees are 2.6x as likely to seek a different job, 63% more likely to call in sick, and 23% more likely to end up in the ER. Beyond the half trillion dollar impact on lost productivity, wages, and healthcare costs, excessive work stress impacts employee happiness and mental wellbeing in and out of work, and is a large threat to employee recruitment and retention. From inside organizations to outside in communities, this takes a toll on all stakeholders. And it can be addressed!
As a bonus, you will receive a digital Wellness in the Workplace toolkit ($100 value) for free and get a taste of the toolkit in action by participating in a workshop directly from one of the toolkit workshop authors.
