Mental wellbeing is one of the most valuable business assets – Like any asset, it can be developed, maintained, or neglected. ... Mental wellbeing affects turnover – Unhappy, dissatisfied, or disengaged employees are more likely to take time off, turn up but not be able to work, leave a workplace, and/or suffer injuries.
