New insights from Harvard Business Review Analytic Services.

Covid-19 has put more responsibility on HR departments than ever before while exposing gaps in today’s approach to employee health, benefits and well-being. It’s clear that employees have difficulty simply finding, understanding, and using the offerings available to them.

For employers, the economic strain and administrative burden increased, and the crisis highlighted the difficulties of making workforce decisions without access to real-time data on employee health and risk areas. On top of it all, the increasing demand for virtual care left many employers scrambling.

Harvard Business Review Analytic Services reveals strategies for closing these gaps in ways that yield the best possible health outcomes and effective cost-management.
