Well-being can be defined as feeling happy, content, healthy, safe and secure. The definition suggests positive physical and mental health, mood and emotions. It encompasses a wide range of factors influenced by a person's health, lifestyle, responsibilities and preferences. While some of these factors can be controlled by the individual, others are less preventable or manageable.

The workplace can have a significant impact on wellbeing. It can be the root cause of changes in an employee's wellbeing or the environment in which the consequences of negative wellbeing occur. Organisations can certainly be proactive in their approach to wellbeing by providing health promotion information and offering choices that meet the physical, mental or lifestyle needs of their employees. Employers can also create an environment that is supportive and responsible when wellbeing deteriorates.
