Bringing wellness to workspaces: The psychology of colour

With statistics revealing the prevalence of stress, mental health issues, and musculoskeletal disorders among workers, there’s a growing need for holistic approaches to wellbeing. Find out how Exacompta’s new Skandi range of filing and desktop accessories embraces this philosophy

Encouraging wellbeing through colour

As the well-known adage goes, the most important assets of any organisation are the people, and with a recent piece of global research identifying how the wellbeing of each individual within the workforce is now considered as a high priority, it can be of little surprise to also see how approximately 83% of businesses’ are stating that they now have a wellbeing policy, with almost half of these making this an integral part of their overall company strategy.

Naturally, with the way of the world today, mental health is a prominent consideration when taking a person’s overall wellbeing into account.  In fact, it’s indicated that around 25% of people in England will experience a mental health issue of some form every year, with over three quarters of workers underlining how they are experiencing moderate to high levels of stress.

Considering impact

Nonetheless, with an estimated 470,000 British employees now suffering from some type of musculoskeletal disorder, including back pain or joint diseases, and 45% of all UK Adults not feeling confident in managing their money, both the physical and financial aspects of wellbeing can combine to compound the issues surrounding mental and emotional health.

Thus, it’s never been such an important time for dealers to make sure they are working together with businesses to ensure they are proactively constructing initiatives that address these areas of concern and building positive working environments that can facilitate the individualistic needs of each workforce member.

Introducing chromotherapy

Chromotherapy, or colorology as it is sometimes referred to as, explores the holistic benefits of colour and the positive impacts that certain colours can have when incorporated within a specific character’s surroundings.

With their new, innovatively stylish Skandi range of filing and desktop accessories, Exacompta connects with this philosophy by bringing soft, natural pink and blue shades that can encourage reflection, creative focus and wellbeing within any organisation, making them ideal for any modern workplace or home office.  Featuring a selection of items that are made from recycled materials, the collection also offers the perfect choice for sustainably minded users.
