Health, well-being programs help work relationships, reduce bullying: Study

Nov 20, 2021

Norwich (UK), Nov 20 (ANI): A new study has found that participation in workplace health and welfare programs can improve the quality of work relationships and reduce bullying. The findings of the research have been published in the 'British Journal of Management'. Programs vary in scope and comprehensiveness but can include a broad range of information, health screening, and activities that attempt to reduce health risks, prevent chronic disease, support healthy behaviors or attempt to identify and change potential health-related problems. Organisations help to create a culture of positive change in which employees are more likely to thrive. This in turn significantly reduces the onset of workplace bullying and improves longer-term mental and physical health as well as job satisfaction.
