CPD: Making a business case for wellbeing

For many years employee wellbeing and organisational performance were believed to be mutually exclusive.

Thankfully, views have evolved towards a form of partnership between organisations and their employees. However, progress is being challenged by economic pressures and headlines claiming the ineffectiveness of workplace wellbeing initiatives.

As an occupational health professional leading change, you may have found that a significant part of your remit is about making a business case for employee wellbeing. Without buy-in from senior leaders, line-managers and employees themselves, efforts to implement wellbeing interventions may feel more like an uphill struggle than the inspiring, rewarding experience they should be.

On this webinar exclusively for OHW+ members, taking place on Thursday 28 March at 2pm, workplace wellbeing advocate Angela Steel will share some practical tips for ensuring organisations sit up and take employee wellbeing seriously.

By the end of this 60-minute webinar, attendees should be able to:

• Understand the wider context in which the business case for workplace wellbeing exists, based on the shifting dynamics between organisations and their employees
• Recognise what relevant and effective wellbeing looks like, and the meaning of ‘wellbeing authenticity’ vs ‘wellbeing washing’
• Appreciate the importance of building a business case tailored to your organisation
• Identify practical steps for making a business case, drawing on different perspectives, from duty of care towards employees to competitive advantage for the organisation.

It will feature a presentation from Angela, followed by a Q&A session, chaired by Professor Anne Harriss.
