BACKGROUND
Would your employees tell you they’d like a
better work-life balance?
Do you think they work too much and don’t
have enough time for family, hobbies,
friends, exercising and even sleep?
Do you notice that stress levels and absence
rates are going up?
What are your options?
a) Let them carry on doing what they’re
doing?
b) Help them take time out to focus on their
work-life balance?
c) Allow them to leave your organisation for
somewhere that offers better flexibility and
better well-being initiatives?
A study conducted by Cascade has revealed that only 13% of
HR/business managers believe their organisation has an effective
wellbeing strategy in place. 67% admit that it is ‘a work in progress’.

The working landscape has changed considerably since the arrival of the Internet, Emails and Social Media.
Many people own smartphones and tablets, which has enabled traditional working patterns to evolve.
In many cases organisations now provide laptops and work phones as standard when employees join the company,
which allows and accepts the employee working from home and outside of office hours.
How many of these sound like your employees?
They don’t work typical Monday to Friday 9-5 anymore.
They take work home.
They answer emails in the evening and at the weekend.
They complain to colleagues about lack of exercise, have a poor diet and suffer from a lack of sleep.
Their time in the evening (which they planned to spend with their partner or children) is spent catching up on the
events of the day.
Their work-life balance has shifted more towards work.
They blame the increase in work and/or having a poor manager.
