HR Times is a magazine run for students by HRSA. Founded in 2020 as a new initiative, we hope to support and inform students on the various trends in HR. This month’s theme - Workplace Health and Wellness - Workplace health and wellness is increasingly becoming a prominent subject in many organizations. Over the past few years, employees have cited job burnout and stress as major contributing factors to their work-life imbalance. This momentum has caused many companies to reshape their values along with increasing awareness over their employees’ wellness. One might think the concept of workplace health and wellness to be overwhelming, but it is merely part of an organization’s practice to promote healthy behaviour from employees. By establishing effective workplace health and wellness practices, organizations can reduce employee absenteeism and be able to maintain consistent work productivity.
