The state of employee health & wellness

From financial to emotional and physical wellness, some recent statistics amplify why it's important for organizations to make employee health and wellness a priority:

59% of U.S. employees are experiencing burnout, up from 52% in 2021 Aflac WorkForces Report
28% of U.S. workers surveyed have quit a job because of their mental health JobSage survey
49% of employees surveyed are prioritizing family/personal life; 47% are prioritizing their mental health Traliant survey
34% of employees with financial stress/money worries say it negatively affects their mental health and sleep (33%) PwC employee financial wellness survey

On the positive side, organizations that support and promote health and wellness can see a ROI. In looking at mental health initiatives, Deloitte research found that early interventions can lead to an ROI of $5.60 on every $1 spent. Further, programs that support already distressed workers offer an estimated ROI of $3.40 for every $1 spent.
