The business case
What is lost productivity costing you?
HR sees the human value. This puts a pound figure on it. Enter a few numbers to see the cost to your business today, and model what recovering some of it would be worth.
Your numbers
Adjust anything. Every figure is an editable assumption.
365 days − 104 weekend days − 29 days annual leave and bank holidays = 232. Used to turn salary into a daily cost.
Absenteeism + presenteeism. UK average is 49.7 (Vitality). Around 90% is presenteeism.
How much of that lost time a coached year realistically wins back. Choose a scenario to model.
What it means for you
Cost of lost productivity, today
£0
per year
Break-even
—
of recovered productive time, per employee per year, to cover the programme cost. Below is one scenario for what more would be worth.
£0
returned for every £1 invested
£0
net benefit per year
That net benefit claws back 0% of your annual cost of lost productivity.
This is a scenario tool, not a prediction of a Wayfinder-specific result, and not financial advice. Model: daily cost = salary ÷ working days. Break-even is the programme cost divided by that daily cost. Days lost are from Vitality, Britain's Healthiest Workplace, with national context from HSE (2024/25). The recovery scenarios are our own illustrative assumptions, built on Vitality's risk-factor associations (physical inactivity +28%, poor diet +14%), not published Wayfinder outcomes. Every figure shown is an editable assumption, so you can stress-test the numbers.
Beyond the balance sheet
The return you cannot put a price on.
The pound figures above are only half the story. The same coached programme that improves health and energy gives your people things a spreadsheet never captures, and that they carry home as well as into work.
Physical health and energy
More energy through the working day, improved fitness and strength, better sleep, healthier weight, and a lower long-term risk of chronic illness.
Mental wellbeing and resilience
Exercise and good nutrition are among the most effective tools for lower stress and anxiety, steadier mood, and the resilience to handle pressure.
Focus and decision making
Sharper concentration, clearer thinking, and better decision making under pressure, alongside the body confidence that comes from achieving things people did not think were possible.
Connection and belonging
Shared goals and team camaraderie, and the loyalty that comes from people feeling genuinely invested in by their employer.
Healthier, sharper, more resilient people do better work. They also live better lives, and they remember who helped them get there.
