Four Major Approaches to Wellbeing

Abstract

More and more companies are providing health promotion and counselling facilities to ensure employee wellbeing, not so much because of the appalling statistics of stress-related illnesses and coronary heart disease rates, but because they are realizing what it costs to an organization to fail to protect its work force. This cost entails days lost to illness, wasted opportunities and, more recently, a massive increase in claims for worker compensation due to stress at work.
