Getting Started with Workplace Wellbeing

If you’re a Business Owner or HR professional being asked to “do more around wellbeing” without much direction — you’re in the right place.

This page is here to give you clarity, confidence and a starting point, no matter the size of your organisation or budget.

Wellbeing doesn’t have to be fluffy or expensive. Done well, it’s a powerful tool to reduce people risk, increase retention, and create a culture where people can truly thrive.

💡 What Is Workplace Wellbeing?

Workplace wellbeing is about more than perks or wellness weeks — it’s about creating the right conditions for people to feel well, stay well, and perform at their best.

That includes:

• 💬 Mental and emotional health

• 🏃‍♀️ Physical health and energy

• 👥 Social connection and belonging

• 🎯 Purpose, growth, and feeling valued

📊 Why It Matters

Businesses that take wellbeing seriously see:

• Fewer absences and burnout cases

• Higher staff engagement and loyalty

• Stronger, more resilient teams

Even small steps can lead to big changes — for your people and your bottom line.

✅ 5 Ways to Get Started

You don’t need a big strategy to begin. Start here:

1. Ask, Don’t Assume

A simple wellbeing pulse survey or manager check-in can uncover real needs.

2. Spot the Clues

What’s your absence data telling you? Are stress or long-term health issues on the rise?

3. Support Line Managers

Equip them with confidence to spot early warning signs and have better conversations.

4. Make Space for the Topic

Bring wellbeing into 1:1s, team meetings, or performance reviews — even just 10 minutes makes a difference.

5. Book a Wellbeing Assessment

My Health & Business Vulnerability Assessment highlights where your risks (and easy wins) are.

🛑 Busting the Myths

You don’t need a big budget, full-time wellbeing officer, or gym on-site to make a difference.

Let’s reframe:

• ❌ “It’s just HR’s job”

✅ It’s everyone’s business – but HR leads the way.

• ❌ “We’re too small”

✅ Every business benefits when people feel safe, seen, and supported.
