Lack of support at work
More than half of Singaporean women surveyed feel that senior management do not support workplace wellness programs enough, while 59 per cent of them feel that workplace wellness programmes need to better address the needs of each gender.
Furthermore, only 33 per cent of all respondents, both male and female, say they have a formal workplace wellness program – and only half of them participate in these.
“This highlights the need to reassess how beneficial and/or accessible these programs are to employees,” the study said.
Additionally, 44 per cent of respondents feel that these programmes are not focused enough on mental well-being.
