Nineteen days.
Recent data shows that businesses are losing an average of 19 business days every single year due to mental health absences alone.
That isn’t just a paperwork issue; that is a leadership crisis.”
Today I’m sitting down with Chris Day of Purpose Benefits to bridge the gap between operational goals and human care.
We are moving past the old way of handing out dense benefit booklets that no one reads.
Instead, we’re discussing how to turn your benefits package into a living, breathing tool that builds trust, reduces stigma, and actually retains your best people.
From the evolution of workplace wellness to the hard data on chronic stress, this conversation explores how you can align your organization’s mission with the well-being of the people delivering it.
If you want to lead with empathy and efficiency, listen in.
