Kenmare Mining Company, with a significant portion of its workforce dedicated to mining operations, faced a pressing challenge in promoting employee wellbeing.
- Lack of Tailored Wellness Initiatives: The inhouse wellness programs lacked customization, failing to meet diverse employee needs across different roles or strata within the company.
- Low Employee Participation & Engagement: Due to a predominantly field-based workforce with limited access to laptops or desktop computers, employees had low awareness of company initiatives. Effectively engaging these employees in wellness program was a critical challenge.
- Serious Health Decline: Because of the strenuous demands of their job, a significant number of employees neglected their health and well-being, leading to reduced morale, increased absenteeism, and a general decline in job satisfaction.
- Lack of Effective Social Recognition: The lack of social recognition and communication had diminished employee morale, posing a significant challenge to job satisfaction and overall well-being.
