New Research Linking Happiness and Productivity

1st November 2019 News

Today we’ve read an article by Robb Moss on Personnel Today reporting on the research just out linking happiness and wellbeing at work with productivity.

Research from the University of Oxford has found that happy workers are 13% more productive. The article explains that this doesn’t mean happy workers stay longer, but rather that they are more productive in their time.

Read the full article on Personnel Today.

We are delighted that these studies are coming out if it helps to convince employers that it’s in their interest to support the wellbeing and happiness of their staff. This is what we’ve been saying forever!

As we’ve been writing about, laughter and play are key ways of supporting organisations to invest in a positive wellbeing culture for employees, so we can help. Have a look at our Laughter at Lunchtime sessions or other workshops.

Contact us to find out how we can support the happiness and wellbeing and productivity of your employees.

What People Say

  • The session was very useful. It was great to learn about self-regulation (and self-awareness) of adults being required before we expect that from the children. Brilliant session, wish we could have more
