Workplace Wellbeing 360 Report 2025
Benchmarking 10 Industries Across the World

About This Report
The second edition of Intellect’s Workplace Wellbeing 360 builds on our 2024 debut, now powered by 50,000+ data points across 182 countries and 10 industries.
This report explores wellbeing through four pillars: Employee Productivity, Employee Wellbeing, Organisational Support, and Work Engagement. Each pillar is shaped by 13 validated personal and workplace factors, from stress and sleep to purpose and belonging.
With broader reach and deeper insights, this edition helps organisations pinpoint what’s driving or blocking mental health progress today.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Global and industry-level rankings across wellbeing drivers
- Key trends, gaps, and year-on-year shifts
- Strategic insights to connect wellbeing with business outcomes
Why This Report Matters
Wellbeing investments are growing, but the numbers reveal why strategy matters more than surface-level perks. Key year-on-year shifts show both progress and pitfalls:
41%
of employees experience presenteeism, which is five times more common than absenteeism
$990
is lost per employee each month due to presenteeism, three times more than absenteeism
r = 0.67
Mental wellbeing has the strongest link to productivity, more than mindset factors
These figures highlight the urgent need to shift from reactive perks to proactive, measurable systems that create real impact on performance, retention, and wellbeing.
