Employee Wellbeing Checklist

There are a wide variety of psychological variables that relate to the employee wellbeing of workers at work. Everybody has a significant effect on your company’s inspiration, resources and emotions.

Anxiety: Not only does anxiety affect our overall happiness at work-it can also harm employees’ physical health and well-being.

Mental Health: Employee well-being isn’t only about health, but rather about the quality of life. While we spend most of our time at work, it is crucial to invest time in family, hobbies, and self-care.

Things within the work environment that can cause mental distress, stress and anxiety.

• Workload – Excessive work
• Needing to work excessive overtime
• Poor communication skills between team members
• Lack of resources
• Equipment – incorrect or broken equipment making completing the job difficult.

Physical fitness in the workplace has long been a priority (Krekel Ward & De Neve, 2019).

It is worth encouraging a better lifestyle, such as healthier food and physical exercise.

Support: Consider offering employee perks, such as yoga clubs and reduced gym memberships.

Provide nutritious snacks and fruit

Ensure that employees recover fully in case they are suffering from sickness.

We are all social beings, and it is not surprising that the interactions we have at work have a significant effect on our well-being.

Merely creating a sense of identity and culture is a safe way to minimise depression and increase employee morale.

Also, promote socialisation through activities such as annual whole business events, the exchange of personal accomplishments of workers and an unofficial intranet.

Employees are likely to support and benefit someone with whom they feel associated.

Language in the workplace is the key factor that strains relations between management and workers, which may erode a sense of identification. Emphasises divisions and can alienate people.

Ensure people don’t feel separated by title, and language that is not conducive with community.

Its important to provide a comfortable work environment. The office needs to have a fine balance between not too cold, not too hot, not too dark and not too bright can have a sizable effect on our happiness.
