Commentary: Wellness is a concept many of us are familiar with. It is often a primary topic for speakers at human resources conferences, written about in the media, and discussed between employers and employees.
However, wellness conversations are often one-dimensional. While employers define the topic in different ways, most are focused solely on the physical. Its useful to zoom out and define wellness in a much broader way to include not only an employees physical health, but also their mental/emotional and financial well-being. After all, these three dimensions of wellness are clearly intertwined, particularly in the minds of employees.
