Abstract :
This study tries to evaluate the unique view of the role of workplace well- being in enhancing employee productivity in the 21st century. The contemporary business world is characterised by organisations competing against each other. In a dynamic and complex business environment, the main aim of the modern corporate organisations is to retain talented employees by ensuring mindfulness and workplace well-being because these employees are the main sources of competitive advantage from a strategic point of view. Thus, an enhanced level of workplace well-being is an effort to create happy and productive workers so that they work optimally and happily. Work is a key social determinant of population health and well-being. Workplace well-being in India is often focused on changing individual health behaviours through employer wellness programs. The covid-19 health crisis brought into focus, some of the limitations of present approaches revealing structural conditions that intensify the physical and psychosocial problems of employees and their family members. The onset of covid-19 pandemic augured in the new dimension of workplace well-being in making home as a happy place to work. This perspective leads Management experts and Human Resource Managers to think about a combined model of work and home as a place of wellbeing.
