Promoting a culture that improves the health and wellbeing of employees is good management and leads to healthy and productive workplaces, says NICE.

The advice comes from latest public health guidance from NICE which calls for employers and managers to do more to address the effect that poor working environments on people’s lives.

The reasons for poor workplace health are widespread and include long irregular hours, lack of control over work and discriminatory practices.

To address this, new guidance on workplace policy and management provides advice on how to develop the culture of an organisation to create a positive environment.

The guidance is aimed at employers, managers and employees and covers a range of areas from organisational commitment to the leadership style of line managers.
