The global pandemic has been a major source of stress for many of us. The uncertainty and loneliness of repeated and sustained lockdowns, coupled with the threat of the virus have triggered a major rise in depression and anxiety across the global population.   A recent survey by the American Psychological Association revealed that 78% of respondents said the pandemic was a major stressor for them, with 9% of respondents having been diagnosed with a mental health disorder since the start of the pandemic. As healthcare costs continue to rise and access to medical care remains a challenge, we are at a critical point with respect to US mental health.   People with chronic conditions often suffer from low self-esteem. Adapting to life with a long-term health condition and dealing with the associated stigma can seriously damage a person’s sense of self-worth. The National Association for Self-Esteem describes good self-esteem as feeling “capable of meeting life’s challenges and being worthy of happiness.” For employers, failing to support people with chronic conditions and those struggling with mental health means missing out on the full potential that employees have to offer.   In Episode 3 of One Drop’s series “The future of employee wellbeing: adapting benefits to the new normal ,” we’re discussing the impact of the global pandemic on mental health in the US and exploring steps employers can take to mitigate the effects for employees with chronic conditions.   - The impact of covid-19 on national mental health - Detangling the relationship between self-esteem, chronic conditions & employee productivity - Offering personalised benefits packages to help manage chronic conditions & mental health  - And more..

Mental health, chronic conditions & the pandemic: a guide for employers

The future of employee wellbeing: adapting benefits to the new normal - Ep. 2

Aside from the global pandemic caused by the coronavirus, a recent poll by the American Psychological Association suggests that stress, trauma and changes to lifestyle are causing immense strain on our mental and physical health, and could trigger a secondary health crisis. 

For many, the stress of the pandemic has resulted in unintentional weight gain. A recent report by the American Psychological Association found that 42% of US adults gained an average of 29 pounds last year, and while weight gain in and of itself is not unhealthy, excess weight can increase the risk of developing chronic health conditions, like heart disease, diabetes and stroke. 

As we start to move into the ‘new normal,’ employers need to be aware of the emotional and physical toll that the pandemic has caused.  Adapting benefits packages to help employees with weight gain and management of chronic conditions are examples of the steps employers can take to acknowledge and tackle the difficulties employees are facing. 

In Episode 2 of One Drop’s series “The future of employee wellbeing: adapting benefits to the new normal ,” we’re tackling the issue of post-covid weight gain and exploring strategies employers can use to develop a benefits program that helps employees prevent and manage chronic conditions. 

Topics for discussion include:
- Lockdown weight-gain: why should employers care?
- The human and financial cost of diabetes management and how it’s impacting your bottom line 
- Adapting benefits programmes to offer more support to employees with chronic conditions 
- And more..

- Sean Kramer, CEO, Diabetes Research Institute Foundation

Supporting Employees to Manage Post-Lockdown Weight Gain in the U.S.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives every year. In the US, heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women across most racial and ethnic groups, causing approximately 655,000 deaths each year. 

Aside from the human cost, heart conditions cost the US approximately $219 billion each year in healthcare services, medicines and loss of productivity. For employers, the challenge is to offer sufficient healthcare benefits to protect all employees against the risks of heart disease while offering long-term support to those most at risk.

For employees with chronic conditions like diabetes, the risk of developing heart disease is much greater. To develop a more inclusive working environment, employers need to prioritize the needs of those most at risk by employing support and management strategies that alleviate the costs of living with a chronic condition and protect against absenteeism. 

In Episode 1 of One Drop’s Original Series “The future of employee wellbeing: adapting benefits to the new normal,“ you’ll hear from benefit experts and clinical experts about how to start mitigating the risks of poor heart health in your company.

Join the session to explore:

- Understand the risks of heart disease and how they impact your bottom line
- Discover cross-company tools and techniques to employ to help employees manage heart health 
- Explore support strategies you can offer employees with diabetes and other chronic conditions to help them better manage their conditions and protect them against heart disease
- And more

A Focus on Workers Living with Chronic Conditions

Improving Employee Health, Engagement, and Retention in 2022

In a 2020 study about employer wellness programs by Willis Towers Watson, over 97% of company respondents committed to improving their health and wellness programs over the next few years. Changing U.S. opinion about what constitutes adequate health and healthcare has resulted in a change in the workplace. Instead of focusing on reactive medical services, employers and employees alike are increasingly seeking care that focuses on the holistic self, prioritizing emotional, financial, and mental health alongside physical health. Put simply, companies are shifting toward a “whole-person well-being” approach in their health and wellness programs.

In this live talk, we will cover:
- chronic conditions in the workplace by the numbers
- the changing perception of health and healthcare in the last decade
- what whole-person well-being in the workplace looks like

Redefining Well-Being in the Workplace

Speakers: Amy Crees, RD Clinical Health Coach (One Drop); Jamillah Hoy-Rosas, VP of Clinical Operations (One Drop); Catherine, One Drop Employer Program Participant

For many of your employees with chronic conditions, improving their health starts and stops with a doctor visit. They schedule a checkup, their physician gives them a treatment plan, and then they’re on their own to improve their health. While this may sound easy, managing a chronic condition often involves making lifestyle changes that can prove incredibly challenging. It’s in between doctor visits that these changes can be made to improve their condition and health in general. Pre-pandemic workforce burnout cost employers between $120B and $190B in healthcare spending, directly affecting employees with chronic conditions. That’s where a health coach comes in.

In this live talk, we will cover: 
- how health coaches help individuals toward a healthier life
- data that show the effectiveness of health coaching on managing chronic conditions 
- how employees who are supported through a health coach improves the employer's bottom line
