Recently, Dr William Fleming, a Unilever research fellow at the University of Oxford’s Wellbeing Research Centre, analysed survey responses of more than 46,000 people to find out whether workplace wellbeing and mindfulness interventions actually worked.

He found that there was no difference in the self-reported mental health of those who participated in these programmes, compared with those who did not. Overall, the schemes didn’t improve workers’ sense of belonging or reduce how pressured they felt.
