Healthy Working Wales

Healthy Working Wales (HWW) is a national programme that aims to improve health and prevent ill-health among the working age population by working with and through employers and workplaces.  

HWW supports employers to:  

·         Create healthy and safe working environments and practices. 

·         Take action to improve the health and wellbeing of their staff and normalise healthy behaviours. 

·         Prevent and manage sickness absence and supportive return to work effectively to prevent people from falling out of work due to ill-health. 

·         Support those with chronic conditions to stay in work. 

·         Take a proactive approach to recruiting disabled people into the workforce. 

It does this through a digital offer to provide employers with a self-directed approach to employee and workplace health and wellbeing activity, including: 

·         Expert advice, guidance, and interactive tools on a wide range of topics. 

·         Employer case studies, podcasts, animated explainers, and infographics. 

·         Employer and employee survey tools measuring organisational readiness to take action on health and wellbeing and workforce health and wellbeing needs in order to inform priorities for action. 

·         Action planning templates. 

·         Guidance on measuring progress and evaluating impact.
