Over 60% of Singapore workers are experiencing burnout, according to new survey » Home News » Singapore News
SINGAPORE: A significant 61% of Singaporean workers are experiencing burnout, according to the latest Wellness at Work report by Employment Hero.
Kong Wan Long, co-founder and chief commercial officer of co-working space provider JustCo, told Singapore Business Review : “Workplace wellness comes in two forms — tangible and intangible.” While tangible amenities such as nap rooms and well-stocked pantries provide physical comfort, fostering a welcoming work culture plays a crucial role in positively impacting employees’ overall well-being.
Mr Kong emphasized that wellness at work extends beyond physical amenities. “Wellness at work goes beyond simply going for team bonding with colleagues or having a good coffee break,” he said. JustCo’s commitment to enhancing the work experience has resonated with its employees, with 80% appreciating the company’s focus on improving the intangible aspects of workplace wellness.
To foster a healthier workplace, Ms Ooi suggested that companies could start small by engaging in organisational “check-ups” to assess their employees’ well-being and implement necessary changes. She stressed the importance of management self-awareness, noting that leaders play a key role in shaping a happier work environment.
