Implementing employee well-being cost-effectively: This is what HR can do

Employee well-being, i.e. the well-being of employees, is largely responsible for the company’s success. “The health and well-being of employees are important operational resources,” says a short report from the German Economic Institute. Nevertheless, it is precisely this area that is at risk of being neglected in times of crises, restructuring and budget cuts. But what exactly does employee well-being involve? The term is often used synonymously with employee satisfaction. Katharina Streithofer-Posch is an expert in diversity, culture, well-being & social impact with over 20 years of experience in international organizations.

The judge informs Errejón that she has filed the second complaint against him for sexual assault | Spain

Judge Carolina García Durrif, head of the Violence Against Women Court Number 12 in Madrid, informed former deputy Íñigo Errejón this Monday that she has archived the second complaint filed against him at the end of February for an alleged case of sexual assault. In a ruling, to which this newspaper has had access, the magistrate has rejected the request of Errejón’s defense to appear in the case because “the proceedings have been archived by a resolution dated today as the victim has not ratified her complaint.” The lawyer of the woman who reported, Alfredo Arrién, has informed this newspaper…

Looking at the price boards at gas stations currently brings tears to commuters’ eyes. The war in the Middle East is causing prices for diesel and gasoline to rise to dizzying heights. The question of whether employees who work from home are saving a lot of money these days can be answered clearly: yes. However, the legislature also clearly answers the question of whether high fuel costs entitle employees to work from home: no. How employees get to work falls within the employee’s personal risk sphere – not the company’s responsibility. Anyone who sees it differently is confusing desire with…

The former president of the Generalitat Valenciana Carlos Mazón will not be investigated for his management of the 2024 dana. For the moment. The Superior Court of Justice of the Valencian Community (TSJCV) has “unanimously” rejected putting the focus of the investigations on this popular man, who on the day of the flood spent almost four hours in a restaurant with a journalist while the province of Valencia was flooding. The judicial body does not appreciate in the reasoned exposition of the investigating judge of Catarroja (Valencia), Nuria Ruiz Tobarra, “a solid and objective foundation” from which “the character of…

The sickness absence rates vary depending on the fund and collective: TK reports sickness absence of 5.23% in 2024 (2023: 5.31%), AOK for 2023 6.6%. This range is an initial signal of the “data…

Political reactions after the elections in Castilla y León, live | Spain

Good morning. We begin the narrative of the political news this Monday, marked by the election day in Castilla y León, which left some surprises. The PP won again and gained two deputies (33), avoiding the downward trend that it had experienced in Extremadura and Aragón. The PSOE also reversed its drift by adding two attorneys to the 28 it had, with a candidate far from Moncloa.
