South Africa Workplace Wellbeing Index 2025 Launched
This is the second edition of our annual Workplace Wellbeing Index, and it’s been incredible to see how much interest, debate, and practical action it sparked across South Africa.
InsightsOctober
This year’s Index builds on strong momentum with a richer view of how employees are really doing—and what they need next. Overall wellbeing in the South African workforce improved from 69 to 75 this year.
- Mental, physical, emotional, and social wellbeing all strengthened
- Financial wellbeing improved the most (+8 points)
- Yet fewer employees describe their workplace as “very healthy”
- More are uncertain about their culture—an early retention risk
Employees don’t want “programme-first” wellbeing—they want healthy culture, leaders who walk the talk, equipped managers, predictability and psychological safety, and support that reflects real-life pressures.
