🌟 Looking to boost your employees' mental health & wellness in the workplace? 

Here are 3 tips:

1️⃣ Productivity doesn't mean working non-stop

Encourage your employees to take short breaks throughout the day to rest and recharge. Whether it's a walk outside, a coffee break, or chatting with a coworker, these breaks help improve focus and reduce stress.

2️⃣ Demonstrate boundaries

Many companies have seen a surge in productivity by designating certain days of the week as "no meeting days." This approach not only sets boundaries that your employees will appreciate, but demonstrates the company's commitment to a healthy workplace.

3️⃣ Offer mental health resources

Partnering with an EAP like Carebridge ensures your employees have immediate, 24-7 access to mental health counseling, as well as work-life services like coaching, financial and legal consults, childcare, eldercare, and more.

Remember, a happy and healthy team is a productive team! 💪 

#MentalHealthMatters #EmployeeWellness #WorkplaceWellbeing.

Employees who understand their benefits are found to be happier and have a greater sense of overall stability at work. 

That's great news, right? 

One problem though...
53% of Gen Z and 55% of Millennials say there are elements of their benefits package they don’t fully understand. 😰

Let's change that!

During this Open Enrollment:
➡️ Ensure there is an inclusive multi-channel communication strategy in place.
➡️ Designate open office hours for HR/Benefits team members to answer questions.

Throughout the Year:
➡️ Regularly promote the benefits (even better if you can target communications specifically to the employees who signed up for that particular benefit).
➡️ Train managers so they can share with their teams.

This approach will:
✔️Increase employee benefit literacy
✔️Improve employee loyalty
✔️Increase utilization & the ROI of benefits programs
✔️Improve employee wellbeing and productivity

Q. What's a major life event that typically gets low to no attention in the workplace? 
A. Becoming an empty nester! 

Whether your child is away at college or moving out, it takes an average of 3 months for parents to work through the emotions and adjustments of becoming empty nesters. 

For HR/Benefits Teams, this means your employees might be quietly struggling through this significant change and not realize they have an EAP like Carebridge to help them.
