The last
few years have seen profound changes in the workplace and in the way that organisations
and individuals are expected to perform. In addition, non-work support structures
that used to be relied upon are no longer there. This has led to a dramatic increase
in pressure which is affecting people's wellbeing and ability to function effectively
in the workplace.
By putting in place effective employee support, employers can improve workforce
effectiveness, morale and attendance levels.
