Wellbeing, ESG and Etiscope

Employee wellbeing is an important aspect of the ‘social’ component of ESG, and Etiscope can help organisations prioritise their employees' wellbeing, by prioritising safety.

There are several positive outcomes to prioritising worker wellbeing, and these directly affect ESG metrics.

When employees feel valued, supported and safe, they are more likely to perform at their best, which improves productivity. This in turn, can result in greater efficiency and reduced waste which are beneficial from an environmental and economic perspective.

Organisations that prioritise safety are more attractive to potential candidates, have better employee retention and also experience less absenteeism due to injury, which supports economic and sustainability goals.

Prioritising safety not only protects employees from harm, but also helps the company avoid potential legal and reputational risks, as well as reducing healthcare costs, which positively impacts financial performance.

Overall, organisations that integrate employee wellbeing into their ESG strategies tend to create a positive work environment, foster stronger relationships with stakeholders, and achieve better financial and non-financial performance. As a result, this can enhance the company's reputation, attract socially responsible investors, and contribute to long-term sustainability and success.
