Have you considered the impact on your business should an employee be struggling?

Have you watched your workers focus and capacity shift due to experiencing…

  •   Disagreements between employees, resulting in loss of motivation to engage
  •   Decline in employees mental health due to overwhelm or external factors
  •   Employee’s relationships breakdown or they experience family loss
  •   An employee has an accident, is injured, or has chronic health difficulties

The annual loss of productivity cost per employee from absenteeism and presenteeism is estimated at $18,836!

Presenteeism occurs when ongoing physical and/or mental health conditions prevent employees from being fully productive whilst at work*.

That is just the individual, now also consider:

  •   Managers’ time to interact with the employee and redirect their work
  •   Cost of replacement staff who require training
  •   Team morale decline due to disenchanted colleagues affected by their absence, roster changes & increased workloads
  •   Cost of recruitment – advertising, on-boarding and training
  •   The years of training you may have invested in someone you had marked for promotion can be wasted in an instant!
