ANXIETY, STRESS & OVERWHELM are the #1 Employee-Wellbeing challenge.
1 in 5 Employees Experience High or Severe Anxiety, Stress & Overwhelm
Qualtrics’ latest Employee Experience Trends report—based on feedback from over 35,000 employees globally, including 2,000+ Australians—found that making work feel less chaotic is one of the most impactful ways employers can enhance employee experience.
Anxiety, Stress & Overwhelm Directly Impact Your Bottom Line
Employers invest heavily in preventing physical injuries, yet the financial toll of workplace mental health issues is often even greater. Mental health conditions typically take far longer to be addressed than physical injuries, lost productivity and the added costs of temporary staffing and overtime.
Burnout is Now a Leading Cause of Disengagement and Attrition
When employees come to work despite being unwell can be more damaging than absenteeism. When staff are physically present but struggling with poor mental health, fatigue, or stress, their productivity, focus, and creativity decline sharply, and it leads to costly mistakes, lower team morale, and diminished workplace culture.
EVERYONE HAS A COPING BATTERY
We all know that work is not meant to be a spa retreat. Of course every employee will face stress and challenges and some anxious moments at work,
When the coping battery is fully charged employees are able to cope and thrive, but over time, without recharging, overwhelm, stress and anxiety drain our batteries.
THE PROBLEM is that overwhelm, stress & anxiety are sticky
Employees lose charge of the battery throughout the day, but it’s easy for the challenges of the day to follow them home. If they don’t properly disconnect from work, that stress can set in and start a downward cycle.
This emotional load lingers after work, making it harder to fully recharge overnight. Over time, people return each day with less in reserve, and the stress compounds. The start struggling and reach a point where their focus and creativity get redirected toward just keeping up, leaving little room for meaningful work or connection.
Ultimately their coping batteries get so low that they reach crisis levels, resulting in absenteeism, presenteeism. Risk of accidents and breakdowns increase, there’s more conflict and attrition.
Current solutions have too much friction
Most wellbeing tools sound good in theory — but only work if people actually use them. The truth is, most are too hard to implement and too clunky to fit into busy workdays.
- They demand complex rollouts, staff training, and ongoing management.
- Employees have to download new apps, remember logins, or dig through files they’ll never open again.
- Some require long breaks that teams simply don’t have.
- And because they’re often only used once stress becomes unmanageable, they fail to keep people consistently recharged.
In short: they create friction, not flow — and that’s exactly what UPWRD was built to solve.
AND THAT's WHY we created upwrd
