Shocking levels of UK workers slam 'negative' workplace

Half of all UK employees believe their workplace is having a negative impact on their mental, physical and financial wellbeing.

These numbers, discovered by Thomsons Online Benefits, come at a time when awareness of employee mental health is dominating certain media headlines.

Their study found that just over half (51%) feel that their workplace is having a negative impact on their health - either mental, physical or financial.

Worryingly, only 18% of their employees feel that their employer’s current benefits programmes supports them in striving to improve their mental wellbeing.
