When the economic situation is uncertain, business owners naturally become concerned about volatile trading conditions. Your employees may also be experiencing anxiety about what the future holds. They are likely to be worried about their jobs, the increasing cost of living, energy costs and the effect of all this on their families. These additional anxieties can raise stress levels, reducing productivity and creating a toxic working environment. 

Businesses can’t control global trade or national taxes, but our award-winning employee benefits scheme can help to address employee stress.   

Can my business afford an employee benefit scheme?

You may be reluctant to consider any extra expenditure when you don’t feel confident about the economic situation. However, when the going gets tough, you must get the most out of every part of your business, including your staff. The cost of an employee benefit scheme may be less than you think. 

A happy, healthy, motivated, and loyal workforce will always benefit the bottom line. The Enjoy Benefits Salary Sacrifice Gym Membership Scheme will enable your employees to choose their gym and spread the cost of gym fees, making them more affordable. The gym fees are deducted from their salary before national insurance is paid, giving this attractive benefit to your employees at a neutral cost to your business. 

Our Health Care benefits plan reduces the cost of essential but non-urgent medical care, such as dentistry, eye tests, and physiotherapy. Niggling pains and injuries can be dealt with quickly, decreasing absenteeism.  This scheme could cost your business as little as £1 a week per employee. 

Employee Benefits that Support Well-Being

Offering your employees benefits that focus on well-being and the development of resilience can be a positive way to support them through life’s challenges. 

The Enjoy Benefits Health and Wellbeing Programme gives your employees access to a suite of online resources and fact sheets to help them maximise their well-being in four key areas of their lives. 

Sleep

Sleep is often the first thing to be affected when anxiety levels rise, yet adequate rest is essential to cope with the stress of uncertain times.

Nutrition

Poor diet, irregular meals, and a reliance on sugar or caffeine for energy are all too typical but are highly detrimental to the body and mind. Healthy eating habits optimise physical energy and mental alertness. 

Emotional Agility

Developing emotional agility allows us to process thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a positive way rather than being overwhelmed by them. Learning to control emotional responses in this way will help your employees remain calm and cope with challenges—useful abilities in both personal and professional life. 

Mental Health Awareness

Strategies that promote mental health are helpful for everyone. They help us cope with difficult times and enjoy our lives to the maximum. 

Finances

Our Health and Wellbeing scheme also addresses managing personal finances. Financial problems are at the root of many mental health issues like uncontrollable stress, anxiety and depression.
