Navigating a life event affects every pillar of a person’s well-being (physical, emotional, social, financial, etc.).
It’s been over five decades since the Holmes-Rahe stress scale recognized the impact of life events on a person’s stress level, and the correlation with physical wellness and well-being.
Although more recent research has refined the original stress index, it remains uncontroversial that navigating a life event affects every pillar of a person’s well-being (physical, emotional, social, financial, etc.).
New research now also shows that these major life events not only have a significant impact on the individual themselves but, in the corporate world, can also have a significant negative economic impact on your business and cause a heavy toll of emotional, physical, and financial disruption for employees.
Our Emily Foy writes here for HR Daily Advisor on how your benefits can support your valued employees through these "life change" events.
