LifeWorks, a provider of digital and in-person solutions that promote individuals’ overall well-being, has expanded access to CareNow, the Total Wellbeing Index, and additional features on the LifeWorks app into 25 new countries and 20 new languages.
This is the organisation’s largest service expansion in recent years, and it was done to help meet global demand for increased mental health and wellbeing support as a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. This expanded suite of trusted, proactive services supplements the existing counselling, coaching, and practical everyday support that is available in these regions and languages 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The key features of the expanded rollout include Total Wellbeing Index, which offers digital assessments across all four pillars of wellbeing – mental, financial, social and physical health – and gives personalised insights and recommendations for support that will improve participants’ health.
CareNow is another feature that offers self-guided programmes to help users deal with stress, depression, and anxiety. Personal and organisational-wide wellbeing challenges, such as step challenges to help with physical and social health, as well as habitude challenges focused on behaviour change such as eating, sleeping, spending, and more; and Newsfeed and recognition features on the LifeWorks app, which help create a sense of belonging and build a culture focused on wellbeing are also offered.
LifeWorks president, integrated health solutions and executive vice president Neil King says: “The need for accessible and effective digital wellbeing resources has never been more critical. People across the globe need more self-guided care solutions that work within their schedules, lifestyle needs and ways of learning, as well as in their primary language. This expansion makes our trusted, comprehensive services available to more organisations around the world, maximising our ability to make a positive impact on more peoples’ lives with culturally relevant and engaging digital wellbeing tools.”
