We’ve been treating the wrong thing.

Why Positive psychology could be the missing framework in preventative healthcare at work.

Every year, organisations pour a lot of resources into their employee wellbeing (whether it be for tickboxes or not..) Workshops, apps, mental health days, EAP programmes that go largely unused and every year the country’s wellbeing numbers get worse.

Latest figures from the Health and Safety Executive indicate that work related stress, anxiety and depression, now account for more than half of all working days lost in the UK. Burnout is at record levels globally and seemingly, those people that care most about their work, are the ones that are most likely to quietly erode.
