Abstract

The idea of enhancing the well-being of employees through employment and skills development has gained greater emphasis in economic growth strategies. This new performance lens challenges the primacy given to financial metrics over social metrics such as health and happiness and brings multiple stakeholder interests into play. This chapter examines the evidence base for employee learning as a pathway to well-being. The case is made for a renewed focus on employee learning enabling transformative change that supports individuals, organizations, and society.
