When employers pay attention to their employees' well-being, it increases productivity and helps employees perform their best, according to a new study by Horizons Workforce Consulting.
"It's clear that creating a culture that supports employee well-being can increase work force potential and drive organizations forward," says Bright Horizons CEO David Lissy. "But understanding what motivates employees and keeps them engaged can be a difficult task, particularly when you take into account the various disruptions competing for mindshare and preventing employees from contributing fully. To cultivate a performance-driven environment, employers need to look within their workforces and understand their needs."
The survey defines well-being as several factors that increase employees' satisfaction while considering health, wellness, finances, career gratification, home and family life, and daily routine. Eighty-nine percent of respondents with great levels of well-being say they have high job satisfaction, and nearly two-thirds of those respondents say they steadily put in extra effort at work.
