When companies focus on the wellbeing of their employees, the benefits can be far-reaching. A recent study by Gallagher examined current and emerging trends to help employers optimize their investments in the wellbeing of their organization as a whole. As in previous years, employee retention remains a top priority. 

According to the study, employers are feeling optimistic about the coming year. More than 9 in 10 employers either project an increase in revenue by 2025, or expect it to stay about the same. Additionally, over half of employers said they expect to see a rise in headcount. 

Despite this optimism, the study predicts that HR leaders and operations teams will remain focused on employee retention in the coming year. Forty-five percent of organizations said that retaining talent is a top priority for the coming year, and 62% of HR teams said the same.
