Prior to 2020, workplace well-being was already an area of growing interest for workers, employers, researchers, and public policymakers. The pandemic has served as a catalyst, sparking more urgent conversations and attention to worker well-being. In light of this renewed interest, the Lee Kum Sheung Center for Health and Happiness hosted a panel discussion focused on recent learnings about workplace well-being, employee resilience, and the implications for our health outcomes.
