A strong culture of wellbeing in the workplace leads to greater personal wellness and work performance. The NIRSA Wellbeing Briefing Work Group invites you to use this table below as a guide to help you evaluate whether you are experiencing a culture of wellbeing in your current workplace.
If you answer “yes,” reflect on examples of how this culture of wellbeing is displayed and supported at your place of work. If you answer “no,” consider how you might contribute as an individual to promoting a culture of wellbeing at work.
