Expert Advice for Happier Holidays
Did you know? 40% of employees feel more stressed during the holidays than the rest of the year, with over 60% facing increased mental distractions from work.
While the holidays are commonly considered a time of celebration, the data tells a different story. With packed schedules, mounting family responsibilities, and financial pressures, many experience stress, anxiety, and burnout, with detrimental effects on exercise, eating habits, and substance use, impacting people both at work and in their personal lives.
This webinar will provide leaders with strategies to support employee wellbeing during this busy holiday season.
