Workplace habits are constantly evolving and today, employee welfare and engagement have become a priority, a reflection of the different organisations. No longer are employees simply earning a salary, but they expect to be engaged as well and for good reason.

Understanding upcoming engagement trends plays a key role in helping HR teams stay ahead and now’s the perfect time to plan and integrate them into the coming year.

As 2026 draws near, there’s a renewed spotlight on employee engagement and the role it plays in shaping a healthier, happier and more resilient workforce.
