What Is Employee Absence Really Costing Your Business?
I’m often asked why businesses should invest in workplace well-being.
My answer is simple: Because prevention matters.
The latest CIPD research shows that UK employees are absent for an average of 9.4 days per year, up from 7.8 days in 2023 and 5.8 days before the pandemic.
And according to the Health and Safety Executive, 22.1 million working days were lost in Great Britain in 2024/25 due to work-related stress, depression or anxiety.
Behind every statistic is a person - Someone who may be struggling with stress, confidence, overwhelm, motivation or simply finding it difficult to switch off.
Through my company wellness work, I help businesses bring practical well-being support directly to their employees.
My positive mindset and mental fitness coaching is designed to help people understand their thoughts, develop resilience and build healthier ways of responding to everyday pressures.
💚 Don't wait until absence becomes the problem. Let's work together to support your people earlier.
