Transforming Talent Retention also looks at ways that companies can help transform their mental health programs for their employees such as paying for streaming subscriptions for remote employees; offering more nutritious snacks around the office; or by adding more ergonomic workstations.
“By identifying that all generations have diverse mental health needs and benefit desires — comprehensive wellness programs, robust mental health support, and meaningful benefits — we allow businesses to foster a more committed and productive workforce,” said Kamber Parker Bowden, founder of The YoPro Know.
