If there’s one thing that the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us, it’s that now more than ever, wellness in the workplace needs to a priority for employers.
This pandemic has shifted almost every aspect of our day-to-day lives from outside the home to inside — from work to exercise and everything in between, and as a result, individuals are focusing on their personal wellbeing more than ever before.

Understanding the impact of COVID-19

The Choosi Choices Report recently examined how people make decisions and found that many Australians are now putting health at the top of their priorities, with 27.2 per cent saying that COVID-19 has had an impact on this decision.
With the closure of gyms and outdoor workout equipment, Australian’s are relying on videos and apps to get their exercise. Tasked with maintaining health and wellbeing efforts that are centred around the home, some are able to sustain their usual eating and workout regimes, whilst many are finding it difficult to stay motivated.
It’s undoubtedly difficult for people to feel inspired and supported to achieve their goals whilst under these circumstances, but with the right strategy it doesn’t have to be.
