Life is good at Spire Homes. The housing association in Rushden, Northamptonshire, recently launched its new health and well being programme. It asked employees at all levels to be champions, with a £10,000 budget to organise things like health checks, massages and nutrition sessions. Everyone has £20 to spend on a well being activity, helping avoid health suffering due to work (83%). School hours contracts, sabbaticals and part time jobs help balance work and home life (81%), and a £103,000 annual training budget makes working here valuable for the future too (83%).
