Workplace wellbeing

Healthy Employees, Thriving Business

Discover Our wellbeing solutions

At Howden Employee Benefits Indonesia, we believe that a happy and healthy team is key to long-term business success. When you invest in workplace wellbeing, you’re not just supporting your people — you’re building a stronger, more resilient business.

Why Workplace Wellbeing matters in Indonesia

In Indonesia’s fast-moving work culture, wellbeing is more important than ever. When employees feel genuinely supported — physically, mentally, and emotionally — they show up, stay engaged, and perform at their best.

Here’s how wellbeing can benefit your business:

More productivity

Employees who receive stress management and mindfulness training report up to a 20% improvement in focus and efficiency.

Fewer sick days

Absenteeism and presenteeism cost companies billions globally. In Asia, presenteeism alone is three times more costly than absenteeism — a significant burden that can be reduced with better support.

Stronger retention

When leaders actively support mental health, employee engagement increases by 30%. A wellbeing culture starts at the top.

Workplace wellbeing, done right

Our expert team in Indonesia helps you create a programme that fits your people, culture, and goals — not a one-size-fits-all solution. We focus on four core pillars:

From health screenings and fitness challenges to ergonomic workspaces, we’ll help you build a healthier work environment.

We support employers with training, stress management tools, and mindfulness initiatives that build resilience and reduce burnout.

Workshops on pensions, personal finance, debt, and planning give your employees greater peace of mind and security.

Inclusive team-building and engagement strategies help your people feel connected and valued, wherever they work.

Tailored support for your business

No two businesses are the same — and neither are their people. We work closely with you to understand your team’s needs, then design practical, high-impact interventions that drive real change.

The business case for wellbeing

For every £1 invested in mental health, employers see an average return of £5.30 in reduced absenteeism, presenteeism, and staff turnover.

A healthier, happier workplace boosts job satisfaction, loyalty, and morale.

Wellbeing boosts your employer brand and helps you attract and retain top talent in Indonesia’s competitive job market.
