Despite economic headwinds, employers maintained – and in some cases – deepened their commitment to employee well-being in 2025. This commitment was made to not only improve and maintain employee health, but also to impact business outcomes. Findings from our 2025 Employer Well-being Strategy Survey revealed that nearly all employers include physical well-being, mental health and financial well-being in their overall strategy. Moreover, some are looking to expand their strategy to include areas such as social determinants of health (SDOH) and family support. Despite this expansion in thinking, employers continue to evaluate the impact of their well-being initiatives through data analytics. Companies brought data to life by using well-being dashboards, which facilitated meaningful conversations with leadership on the value of their investments in well-being.
