Hello and welcome to the
Workplace Wellbeing Charter website
The Workplace Wellbeing Charter is an opportunity for employers to demonstrate their committment to the health and well-being of their workforce. The positive impact that employment can have on health and wellbeing is now well documented. Their is also strong evidence to show how having a healthy workforce can reduce sickness absence, lower staff turnover and boost productivity - this is good for employers, workers and the wider economy.
The Wellbeing Charter provides employers with an easy and clear guide on how to make workplaces a supportive and productive environment in which employees can flourish. Employers who volunteer to sign up will find help and support available through their regional Health, Work and Well-being Co-ordinator.
The co-ordinators can provide employers with access to the services and advice they need to meet the charter, and help them to build the healthy workforce that business needs for the future.
I urge all employers to consider signing up to the charter, so they can take advantage of what it has to offer both them and their employees.
