The power of positive resilience

It’s early days but, so far, the 2020s aren’t winning any prizes as the UK workforce’s favourite decade. Times are tougher, belts are tighter, and pension scheme membership is under pressure as employees navigate the seismic shift in the status quo from early 2020 to now. The cumulative impact of the pandemic, the rise of working from home, the cost-of-living crisis and more cannot be underestimated.

Barnett Waddingham’s latest wellbeing research

Barnett Waddingham recently surveyed 3,000 employees, representing a cross section of full and
part-time permanent workers, across all major industries and locations throughout the UK. Across 30 wide-ranging questions, we wanted to discover what support was being made available by
employers, both financial and wellbeing focussed, and if it was adequately covering the needs of employees.

The cost-of-living crisis has had an impact on most people, and our findings support this. The greater impact appears to be on women overall ages, but there is no correlation between age and the impact itself.
