How do you keep your staff motivated?

As public awareness around mental health and hybrid working takes precedence, Laura Little, learning and development manager at CABA, looks at why accountants are now demanding more from their workplace benefit packages

In today’s consumer-centric society, success is often equated with being busy. We fill our calendars with more meetings, events and tasks than our working day allows, often sacrificing our social lives in the process. This mentality has contributed to widespread acceptance of long working hours, unpaid overtime and an ‘always on’ culture, leading to feelings of high pressure, stress and even burnout.

However, as public awareness around mental health and the importance of self-care grows, an increasing number of people are choosing to focus on their wellbeing rather than their monthly paycheck and the badge of honour that often comes with being seen to be ‘busy’. As a result, employees are now demanding from their employers a benefits package that goes beyond traditional remuneration.
