Many organisations are prioritising mental health initiatives in the workplace in order to arrest the worrying trend of increased levels of stress, absenteeism and presenteeism at work. As the numbers around mental health cases across the world increases many are asking what works and what does not. This research paper written in 2024 attempts to quantify the impact and effectiveness of different well-being interventions on overall employee well-being.
The research team at the University of Oxford used survey data from over 45,000 workers across 230 different organisations to quantify how effective individual well-being interventions such as resilience training, mindfulness exercises and the use of wellbeing apps were in addressing the wellbeing of those employees.
The research paper is available for you to download below so take a look at it yourself and see what you make of it.
As this was such an interesting paper to look at we decided to do a deep dive into the world of organisational wellbeing.
