Employees' sense of belonging in the workplace is important as ever and a new study by the Integrated Benefits Institute (IBI) recently shared data that confirms the positive benefits of inclusion in the workplace.
In recent years, organizations have been prioritizing efforts to increase diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs in the workplace. The recent study found that 91% of employers offer DEI programs and 80% of employers view their efforts positively.
The outcomes of these efforts are significant, with the research demonstrating that employees who perceive support, connectedness, being accepted, respected and valued are 3.4x more likely to be physically healthy, 5.2x times more likely socially healthy and 4.4x more likely to be mentally healthy.
