Business Group on Health’s 2026 Employer Well-being Strategy Survey examines employers’ perspectives on the present and future state of employer-sponsored well-being program strategies and tactics. The survey results uncovered the ways that employers are approaching well-being across their entire workforce. For multinational employers, providing well-being programs requires navigating different cultures, laws and regulations.
Fielded in January and February 2026, the survey was completed by 156 employers that collectively employ 12.4 million employees worldwide. The survey participants represent a wide range of industries, employer sizes and geographic presence, and 60% of the respondents are multinational employers. Results from this survey represent employers’ offerings and perspectives across their entire workforce.
Ellen Kelsay, President and CEO of Business Group on Health, and the entire Business Group team thank our members for their participation in this project. Your support provided us with rich data and thoughtful insights into the future of employer-sponsored well-being.
