Investments in employee health and wellness can boost your business bottom line. It should come as no surprise, yet annually business loses revenue due to low productivity caused by work-related incidents and injuries, as well as stress and mental health issues.

In South Africa, loss of earnings due to major depression and anxiety disorders is costing the economy more than R40 billion or 2.2% of the country’s GDP, or a whopping R54.121 per affected adult per year, according to research published by the Financial Mail.

Businesses have the responsibility to create awareness and implement health and wellness policies to keep employees happy and productive in the workplace and reap the operational and financial benefits that come from making these changes.

Since productive employees create a positive impact on a business’s bottom line, it has lead companies aware of its importance to increasingly invest in health and wellness programs and systems to measure this impact and its success.
