Unlock Your Organisation’s Potential: Invest in Your People!
In today’s fast-paced, ever-evolving business landscape, one truth remains constant: your people are your greatest asset. But how do you truly maximise their potential and, in turn, your organisation's return on investment?
Our groundbreaking new UAre Research Report - Maximising Return on Investment in Your People 2025, sheds light on this crucial question and provides actionable insights for transforming your performance strategy through employee well-being.
This comprehensive report unveils some compelling statistics that should catch the attention of every business leader. Did you know that companies that invest in employee well-being can see up to 3x better shareholder returns, 50% reduced turnover, and 21% greater profitability?
These aren’t just abstract figures; they represent tangible financial gains and a more robust, engaged workforce. Our report emphasises that investing in well-being isn't a luxury anymore—it's a necessity for sustained success.
Key Findings That Demand Attention
One of the most striking findings is the clear correlation between employee well-being and firm value and profitability.
Studies from Harvard and Oxford Universities show that high employee well-being is strongly linked to superior investment returns. In fact, fund managers are increasingly tracking companies' investments in well-being as a predictor of future performance.
Moreover, companies with high workplace well-being significantly outperform major stock market benchmarks like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq.
Our report also dives into the impact of well-being on employee engagement, productivity, and risk reduction. Gallup studies reveal that business units in the top quartile for employee engagement see dramatically better outcomes, including:
21% higher profitability
18% greater productivity
63% fewer safety incidents
27% reduction in absenteeism and
50% lower turnover.
Your Duty of Care: A Growing Responsibility
Our report also highlights employers' increasing legal liability regarding their employees' physical and mental well-being. Whether employees work in the office or remotely, companies have a duty of care to ensure their safety and well-being. This means implementing proactive systems to manage health and safety risks and foster a positive organisational culture.
The research indicates that a significant percentage of leading global companies have faced investigations or litigation related to safety breaches, underscoring the importance of taking this responsibility seriously.
Six Steps to Sustained Success
Our report offers six practical steps for creating and maintaining a successful employee well-being program:
Establish a clear well-being logic with a sound business case and board buy-in.
Appoint an executive sponsor and well-being champions to drive the initiative.
Implement a reporting framework using well-being data to track progress.
Agree on priorities with employee buy-in and leadership commitment.
Implement, persist, and adapt with continuous improvement mechanisms.
Celebrate and reward the team for achieving shared well-being goals.
By following these steps, organisations can create a robust well-being program that drives positive change and delivers a significant return on investment.
