Employee well-being will take center stage at this year's SEDAT HR Conference, scheduled for March 27, 2025 in Takoradi.
The conference aims to address the crucial link between workforce wellness and organizational success.
It will focus on how HR professionals can effectively translate employee well-being policies into practical strategies that foster a motivated and highly productive workforce.
The conference, now in its third year, is also aimed at bridging the gap between policy development and practical implementation, emphasising employee well-being as a driver of success in modern organisations.
Under the theme "From Policy to Practice: Integrating Employee Well-being in HR Management for a Motivated and Highly Productive Workforce," the conference will equip HR professionals with practical tools to nurture healthier work environments.
This comes at a critical time, as World Health Organization data reveals that depression and anxiety alone cost 12 billion working days globally each year.
The conference will showcase actionable strategies for organizations to transform their workplace culture, moving beyond traditional HR policies to implement tangible well-being initiatives. Participants will learn how to create supportive work environments that prioritize mental health, work-life balance, and employee satisfaction.
By focusing on real-world implementation, the conference aims to help organizations transition from merely having well-being policies to actively fostering a culture where employee health and happiness are fundamental to daily operations.
This practical approach is designed to help companies build more resilient, engaged, and productive teams through enhanced employee care and support.
The keynote speaker is the CEO of Vortex Resource Ltd, Ing Joshua Mortoti.
Other speakers include Head of Human Resources for Tullow Ghana, Kwame Afreh; HR Advisor at Merian Mine, Suriname, Hussein Edward Abugri; Business Psychologist and HR Strategist, Felicia Opoku-Folitse; and Founder and CEO of ICS Africa Limited, Emmaline Datey.
