Workforce wellbeing is dipping, despite more focus being placed on improving it. Why is that?
Deloitte’s Wellbeing at Work survey 2023 reports these statistics from staff (non C-Suite): “always” or “often” feel exhausted (52%) or stressed (49%), and others report feeling overwhelmed (43%), irritable (34%), lonely (33%), depressed (32%), and even angry (27%). Managers and executives are struggling too, and are less likely to report these sentiments.
The statistics that really stood out to me are:
60% of employees, 64% of managers, and 75% of the C-suite are seriously considering quitting for a job that would better support their well-being.
What this is showing me is that despite our view that the 'further we progress, the better it will get', these statistics are showing us that those in leadership positions are struggling, not just with their own well-being, but the impact of trying to navigate the well-being of their teams.
A further report suggests 88% of employees in the UK experienced burnout in the last two years with an ‘increase in stress’, accounting for half of all work-related ill health and time off.
I strongly believe that working with managers and those in positions of leadership, including C-Suite, enables there to be a far bigger impact for the company, the culture and ultimately the team.
There needs to be a complete understanding and embrace of what ‘well-being’ will actually mean in your company, from the people who not only make the decisions but also need to lead, support, and implement these changes.
I offer interactive workshops (in person and online); well-being days or retreats, together with longer term consultancy to support your staff 1:1, in groups and in a way that enables sustainable, long-term wellbeing growth in the company .
