Health and Well-being

We are committed to creating a work environment that prioritizes your health and well-being.

The Covid-19 pandemic has recently highlighted the importance of well-being under remote working conditions. We offer a variety of trainings, webinars, well-being activities, and health insurance plans to help our employees make healthier choices in three areas: mental, physical, and financial well-being.

Your mental health and well-being

As per Mental Health First Aid England report, one in six working age adults have symptoms associated with mental ill health at any given time. Allianz recognizes the importance of good mental health in the workplace and is committed to supporting the
mental wellbeing of all employees. We strive to ensure that mental ill health is treated on par with any physical illness, and to create an environment where employees feel able to disclose a mental health issue without any fear of discrimination, judgement, or harm to their career opportunities.

  • Well-being Talks and Webinars

    How to energize during the day? What actions can you take to build self-awareness? Talk with health professionals about mental and physical wellbeing, or join our Global Health Community to answer these and many other questions.
     

  • Mental Health First Aid Training

    Being unable to cope with stress may cause health issues. We provide our employees with a training course to learn simple, practical first aid skills for helping people who are experiencing mental health problems.

  • Mental Well-being Trainings for Managers

    We educate our management teams in how to adapt leadership behavior to effectively support your health and mental well-being.

  • Employee Assistance Programme

    Our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) is a 24/7, free, and confidential service designed to give our employees unlimited access to information, advice and immediate emotional support to help them manage and reduce the impact of all of life’s events, both at home and at work. Our EAP services include immediate telephone helpline, legal advice/information, session-based counselling, employee career coaching, and mangement support.

Experience our Global Mindfulness Movement

We believe that empathy and compassion are vital skills – helping our employees build trustful, lasting relationships with co-workers and customers. Because we know that creating a diverse and inclusive workplace fosters an empathetic and compassionate corporate culture where employees work and treat each other as humans. Therefore, we have kicked off the Global Mindfulness Movement to learn and promote these competencies.

Your physical well-being and health

Physical well-being does not only mean being physically healthy. It also relates to our energy levels at work. At Allianz, we take action to support the healthy lifestyle of our employees in the office and during remote working.

Health Insurance Plans

We offer our employees various health insurance plans to meet the needs of individuals and families. Not sure, which scheme is right for you? Our consultants are here to help you find the right insurance plan to suit your needs, depending on your region and occupation.

Prevention Measures

Routine health care can help to detect, treat, or even reverse health issues. At Allianz, you can benefit from a set of prevention measures, such as screening tests, immunization, and more.

Allianz Global Health Days

Your financial well-being

Being financially well is not synonymous with being wealthy - instead it's about being able to manage your day-to-day finances, focusing on the things that make life enjoyable and having the financial freedom to make your own choices now and into retirement. At Allianz, we provide resources to help our employee make the best decisions for their financial future.

Free Financial Health Check

Whether you're struggling with the increased cost of living, saving and preparing for a life event, or planning for your future, it can be hugely beneficial to reflect on your financial health to ensure you're on the right path. We offer our employees a free Financial Health Check that can be helpful at any life stage and aims to aid them in reaching their financial goals, whatever they may be.

Financial Webinars/Events

Throughout the year, the Allianz UK Wellbeing Team will be hosting or signposting webinars on financial wellbeing. These webinars are designed to give you the tools, knowledge and support to upgrade your financial health - all from the comfort of your own desk!

Being in balance at work

In a hybrid work environment, being mindful of your time is crucial. That is why we do our best to help our employees organize their tasks, meetings and everything in between in a way that really works for them. We developed 3 simple rules to help manage your time and productivity. Curious to learn more? Explore our work effectiveness standards below.
