The business case for developing wellbeing at site level is clear and includes benefits such as better performing staff, fewer sick days taken and a lower staff turnover. Many companies can demonstrate the link between improved wellbeing, reduced costs and better financial performance. Poor mental health alone is estimated to cost the UK economy between GBP70 and GBP100 billion a year. The main body of the guide focuses on the component areas of mind, culture, body and physical environment to identify how to improve performance in them. The guide also includes a baseline tool that can be used to plan actions and track performance and a series of awareness raising slides to help communicate the strategy to the target audiences. Taken together these elements of the guide will enable construction companies or sites to develop a comprehensive wellbeing strategy and improve their performance.
