We recently asked 1,000 employees about workplace COVID safety measures – and how their company’s approach measures up. Fifty six per cent felt that efficient screening would make them feel more cared for and protected at work. More than half said in-house testing would improve their mental health.

Employee screening does more than stop the spread of the virus. It boosts staff retention, trust, wellbeing, morale and productivity.

As offices fill and vaccinated travellers return to work without quarantine requirements, testing will not only single out transmission risks. It will show which businesses prioritise staff peace of mind.

You’ll provide peace of mind for the 81% coming to work with safety concerns – and show a clear commitment to employee health, happiness and wellbeing. That’s positive news for attraction, retention and productivity.
