Workwell Model
Business in the Community www.bitc.org.uk
• The inner grey wheel outlines the complementary employee led element of the model. Demonstrating and supporting how employees can take action to support their own wellbeing and that of others, this element is based on the Five Ways To Wellbeing framework developed by the New Economics Foundation.
• The five inner segments of the model cover the broad areas businesses need address in order to create a culture of wellbeing, where employees can thrive. By taking action across all of these elements, businesses can create a comprehensive approach to wellbeing that drives business productivity and employee engagement
Business in the Community www.bitc.org.uk
• Better physical and psychological health: creating a safe and pleasant work environment by promoting a physically safe working environment and promoting healthy behaviours, both
physical and mental.
• Better work: creating a happy, engaging environment of good work, which is underpinned by good job design, autonomy, variety, employee voice, talent management, employment security, and a management style and culture that promotes mutual trust and respect.
• Better relationships: Promoting better communication both inside and outside the workplace, to ensure employees maintain the social capital they need for good mental health wellbeing.
• Better specialist support: Ensuring teams manage health issues at work in a proactive way, and facilitate a more efficient return to work for those off work, by equipping specialist teams, line managers and all employees with information and skills to maintain their own health and support others.
• Working well: Positioning employee wellbeing as a boardroom issue, creating a culture of wellbeing where employees feel trusted, respected, with a strategic proactive approach to wellbeing, underpinned by strong governance and reporting arrangements

Lamplighter in the UK
A common framework with a common set of tools under four pillars – each with specific na<onal and site KPI’s
Leadership & Management
CommunicaVon & Culture
Building Resilience & Developing Employee
Wellbeing
Support
Managers who understand physical and mental wellbeing as a core element of their
people management, and leaders who consider an
individuals total wellbeing as part of
business decision-‐making and capability building.
A performance culture is a healthy and resilient culture, where mental and physical health are ac<vely discussed,
managed and understood to be intrinsic to success.
Given that a performance culture needs to be a resilient culture,
interven<ons, tools and techniques will be put in
place that build organisa<onal, team and individual wellbeing to meet the needs of the business and the needs
of our people.
Anyone in Unilever should be no more than one click, one phone call or one discussion from
the help they need if they are experiencing any issues with their health
and wellbeing.

Five Ways to Wellbeing
Developing your Health and Wellbeing Strategy
Zoë Cross, Health Improvement Advisor (Workplaces)
Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council
zoe.cross@cambridgeshire.gov.uk
Five Ways to Wellbeing
• Developed by New Economics Founda<on (NEF) • Divided wellbeing into two main elements – feeling good and func<oning well
• Aimed to iden<fy a set of evidence based ac<ons to improve wellbeing which individuals could be encouraged to build into their own lives
Connect
• There is strong evidence that indicates that feeling close to, and valued by, other people is a fundamental human need and one that contributes to func<oning well in the world.
• It’s clear that social rela<onships are cri<cal for promo<ng wellbeing and for ac<ng as a buffer against mental ill health for people of all ages.
• With this in mind, try to do something different today and make a connec<on.
Be Ac5ve
• Regular physical ac<vity is associated with lower rates of depression and anxiety across all age groups.
• Exercise is essen<al for slowing age-‐related cogni<ve decline and for promo<ng well-‐being.
• But it doesn’t need to be par<cularly intense for you to feel good -‐ slower-‐paced ac<vi<es, such as walking, can have the benefit of encouraging social interac<ons as well providing some level of exercise.
Take No5ce
• Reminding yourself to ‘take no<ce’ can strengthen and broaden awareness.
• Studies have shown that being aware of what is taking place in the present directly enhances your well-‐being and savouring ‘the moment’ can help to reaffirm your life priori<es.
• Heightened awareness also enhances your self-‐understanding and allows you to make posi<ve choices based on your own values and mo<va<ons.
Learn
• Con<nued learning through life enhances self-‐esteem and encourages social interac<on and a more ac<ve life.
• Anecdotal evidence suggests that the opportunity to engage in work or educa<onal ac<vi<es par<cularly helps to liU older people out of depression.
• The prac<ce of selng goals, which is related to adult learning in par<cular, has been strongly associated with higher levels of wellbeing.
Give
• Par<cipa<on in social and community life has aRracted a lot of aRen<on in the field of wellbeing research.
• Individuals who report a greater interest in helping others are more likely to rate themselves as happy.
• Research into ac<ons for promo<ng happiness has shown that commilng an act of kindness once a week over a six-‐week period is associated with an increase in wellbeing.
Ac5vity
• On your tables take one of the five ways to wellbeing and think about how this could be used as a star<ng point for part of your staff health and wellbeing strategy
Public Health/Health Improvement • Stopping Smoking • Ea<ng healthily • Physical Ac<vity • Mental Health • Alcohol
Other considera5ons
• Data and intelligence (survey, sickness absence) • Support and direc<on (calendar of events, culture of self help, Champions, employment policies)
• Interven<ons (MHFA Lite, EAP, Health Checks, Workshops, adjustments)
• Social Wellbeing (volunteering, staff as carers, support groups, clubs)
• Employee Benefits (staff recogni<on, flexible working)

Rate of benefit related to BAPH acVviVes (2015)
4-‐12% improvement rate of health as a result of star<ng exercise and healthier ac<vi<es is es<mated based on popula<on level ra<os (European Quality of Life Survey) Two-‐thirds of employers report staff started their own group ac<vi<es as a result At an aggregate level, 1 in 5 Employers report 0.29 reduc<on in sick days related to BAPH ac<vi<es (poten<al £1.5m in cost savings) BUT there is low systema1c tracking or repor1ng of employee health & wellbeing over the long term and impact on performance of business func1on
