All is set for this year’s SEDAT HR Conference slated for 27th March 2025 at the Western Serene Atlantic Hotel in Takoradi, in the Western Region.
This year’s theme, “From Policy to Practice: Integrating Employee Well-being in HR Management for a Motivated and Highly Productive Workforce” focuses on employee well-being’s critical role in driving productivity and engagement within organisations.
It will focus on prioritising the well-being of employees, who are the backbone of organisations. Participants will learn practical strategies and skills that they can immediately implement to integrate well-being initiatives into their daily organisational practices. We expect this to foster a culture of care, motivation, and productivity within organisations.
According to the World Health Organisation, depression, and anxiety result in the loss of 12 billion working days worldwide each year. Addressing these issues is vital for creating healthier work environments.
