The COVID-19 pandemic caught the world off-guard and served as a wakeup call on various levels. Now, more than ever, the health, safety and wellbeing of employees has become a major focus area for many companies. Fragmented programs that act as band aids for short-term concerns are no longer sufficient to address the changing needs and demographics of today’s employees.
We are pleased to share with you the highlights of the Wellbeing Diagnostic Survey - Singapore, which ran between January to May 2021, and covers responses from 96 employers from Singapore. The survey aimed to better understand organisations’ approaches to wellbeing in the workplace.
The vast majority (73%) of employers in Singapore plan to use their wellbeing programe as a differentiator in three years, compared to only 17% who are doing so today.
There’s been a significant jump in employers who believe that their senior leadership is genuinely interested in the health and wellbeing of employees and their families.
Employers are increasingly looking at wellbeing as a holistic proposition, including emotional wellbeing — this is a timely shift as 73% of employers in the Singapore said that stress is a severe issue for the workforce.
Looking forward, employers are expanding their use of data and analytics, and increasingly adopting a value-on-investment, rather than return-on-investment approach, to measure success.
