Secrets of Success: The ROI of Wellbeing

This webinar ended on 22 July 2025.
For years, wellbeing has been treated as a perk at work. A bowl of fruit here, a yoga class there. A shout-out once a month. Yet new research from Employment Hero draws a clear line between how people feel at work and how they perform.
Making the case for true employee wellbeing can sometimes feel like a tough sell, especially when targets, efficiency and outputs dominate the agenda. But what if the real driver of performance has been hiding in plain sight?
Join us for this eye-opening session with Kevin Fitzgerald, Employment Hero’s UK Managing Director, as he challenges the outdated idea that wellbeing is about perks and freebies, and shows why feelings like recognition, purpose and being valued are anything but “soft.”
These human factors don’t just make people feel good; they drive real results. And the best part? They’re free, and already within reach.
Here’s just some of the findings:
- Job satisfaction is the strongest predictor of employee productivity – yet it only ranks 9th in priority for SMEs.
- Recognition-rich workplaces are 40 percent less likely to face retention issues – but it ranks 19th out of 20 productivity drivers.
- Employees who feel recognised are 3 times more likely to be highly productive – yet 50 percent say they don’t feel recognised enough.
- People are 27 percent less likely to go above and beyond for monetary incentives – but are 25 percent more likely to help a colleague if their work feels meaningful.
At Employment Hero, we believe it’s time to stop treating wellbeing as a feel-good bonus and start seeing it for what it really is: a business-critical strategy.
