Work can have a huge impact on employees’ wellbeing. Government studies show there has been a deterioration in mental health following each lockdown, and has not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels. The pandemic left many people feeling vulnerable, alone, and without their usual methods of coping, which led many people to quit their jobs in large numbers.
A silver lining is that this situation has provided a perfect opportunity to redefine employee/employer relations and to prioritise the human factor of the workforce. We speak to Jacqui Summons, chief people officer at EMIS Health, and Peter Kelly, a senior psychologist at the Health and Safety Executive, about why it is crucial to focus on employee wellbeing to avoid
the risk of even more resignations in future.
