"I've helped colleagues with financial insecurity, work pressures, relationship issues, and anxiety, but it can literally be any challenge they are facing. We aren't experts, but we've been trained to listen and provide guidance on where they can seek specialist support."
Measuring our impact
In our bi-annual employee engagement survey, we ask our global workforce to rate their response to the statement “I believe my health and wellbeing are taken seriously by the company” and aim to reach the following engagement scores:
By 2026
By 2030
Outperform industry benchmarks
"Wellbeing isn't just about yoga sessions or mindfulness apps; it's so much more. It's about how we manage our private and professional lives and how they intersect. It's about how we care for ourselves and each other physically and emotionally, both day-to-day and long-term. At Tenth Revolution Group, we are fully committed to creating a culture that supports all of these different aspects of our employees' mental, physical, financial and social health - and through our Wellbeing Matters program, we are delivering on that promise."
