Creating better workplaces with HumanOS & Salt
Workplaces don’t become great by accident. They’re designed with intention. From daily habits to strategic initiatives, the way we support teams shapes productivity, engagement, and well‑being.
Salt and HumanOS have partnered to explore how organisations can create environments where both people and businesses thrive. Moving the conversation from “how do we hire great people?” to “how do we help great people thrive?”
The future of work: Insights leaders can’t ignore
- Workplace systems are outdated. Many organisations still operate on industrial‑era models built around hours and presence, rather than flexibility, creativity, and collaboration.
- Presenteeism is the hidden cost. Research shows presenteeism drains energy and creativity, costing trillions globally, far more than absenteeism.
- Psychological safety drives performance. Teams thrive when people feel safe to speak up, make mistakes, and challenge constructively.
- Culture is the real differentiator. Perks and optics don’t change outcomes. What gets rewarded and punished defines the lived reality of culture.
- Generational expectations are shifting. Gen Z demands purpose, balance, and autonomy from day one, holding organisations to higher standards.
- Intersectionality matters. Strategies that ignore differences in gender, race, disability, or socioeconomic status risk widening gaps instead of closing them.
