In 2025, wellbeing is anticipated to be a multifaceted, personalised approach that emphasises a holistic balance between mental, physical, emotional and social health.
To stay relevant, employers need to prioritise wellbeing in a meaningful way and keep up with current trends. Key themes include the integration of technology for personalised care, the importance of community, and an even greater focus on mental health.
Here are three workplace trends that will likely define what wellbeing looks like in 2025:
AI-powered wellness apps
Our 2024 predictions highlighted the growing demand for wellbeing initiatives and mental health support at work. This year, virtual and AI-driven mental health platforms will expand access to therapy and coaching. AI-powered apps may help employees practice mindfulness, manage anxiety and daily stressors, and provide on-demand support.
Personalised digital solutions
Personalisation is the future of workplace wellbeing. AI will provide personalised solutions that enable employees to manage their health, automate mundane tasks and alleviate decision-making processes. From diet plans to fitness regimes, more of our lifestyle choices will be tailored to our unique biological needs.
A holistic approach to wellbeing
There’s already movement toward shared wellness goals within communities – and this extends to the workplace. Alongside this, we expect to see a greater desire for IRL interactions and support networks, especially with increased remote and hybrid working. Employers will need to take a holistic approach to wellbeing – encompassing mental, physical, emotional and social aspects to truly support a diverse range of needs.
By embracing the advances in technology and increase in employee expectations, organisations stand a greater chance of fostering a desirable, inclusive and fulfilling workplace for everyone.
