What is employee well-being?

Employee well-being refers to the holistic state of an individual’s physical, mental, and emotional health at work. It encompasses factors like job satisfaction, stress levels, and work-life balance. Employee well-being is increasingly recognized as a crucial component of workplace productivity and employee retention.

Many workplace aspects can affect an employee’s well-being, including company culture, management, work schedules, benefits, perks, and compensation. Another common component of employee well-being is work-life balance, which can be influenced by factors outside of work.
