Surrey County Council and Healthy Surrey Launch Comprehensive Workforce Wellbeing Programme
In today’s fast-paced business environment, Surrey County Council understands that organisations are under immense pressure to balance operational demands, support their employees, and remain competitive. That’s why Surrey County Council is proud to introduce the Workforce Wellbeing Programme—a free initiative designed to help Surrey-based businesses with 10 or more employees improve mental health and wellbeing across their teams.
This innovative programme acknowledges the challenges businesses face daily, from managing tight deadlines to tackling workplace stress. By providing tailored support, practical tools, and evidence-based strategies, the Workforce Wellbeing Programme empowers organisations to create healthier, more engaged workplaces without adding to their workload.
Supporting Businesses Where It Matters Most
The Workforce Wellbeing Programme offers a comprehensive framework centred on six pillars, giving businesses a clear path to improving workplace wellbeing. Through this initiative, organisations can access a wealth of free resources designed to make a meaningful difference, including:
● Evidence-Based Framework: Solutions customised to meet each organisation’s unique needs.
● Self-Assessment Tools: Evaluate and identify key areas for improvement.
● Workforce Engagement Materials: Resources to inspire and involve employees in wellbeing initiatives.
● Wellbeing-Related Training: Expert-led training sessions provided by Surrey County Council.
● Evidence-Based Recommendations: Practical strategies backed by research.
● Collaborative Membership: Join a supportive network of businesses prioritising workforce health.
This flexible and accessible programme integrates seamlessly into organisations of all sizes, ensuring businesses can improve employee engagement and build a workplace culture centred on trust and wellbeing.
Why Workforce Wellbeing Matters
Many businesses are familiar with the challenges of workplace stress, mental health struggles, and the pressure to maintain productivity. These factors contribute to absenteeism, reduced morale, and difficulties retaining talent.
Investing in employee wellbeing is not just about solving immediate challenges—it’s about long-term success. Research consistently shows that organisations that prioritise wellbeing experience:
● Fewer absences and greater productivity.
● Improved employee satisfaction and morale.
● Enhanced recruitment and retention.
Surrey businesses can join the Workforce Wellbeing Programme and create lasting change that benefits their employees and their bottom line. For more information, visit the Surrey County Council website to download an introduction to the ‘How are you?’ Workforce Wellbeing Programme.
