INTRODUCTION
Well being is something beyond the professionalism this shows that the state of being
comfortable, healthy and happy. The well being is the very broad concept to realise that this is
related to moment-to-moment happiness in the organisation, this also shows the quality of life
that we are living in the organisation and also helps to find out what is good for them and in
which things they are interested to do Agrawal, 2019).The well being also represents the value of
the things for the individual person. Now when discussion is about the skills of higher education
this is the important adjustment for the for the new college students, the higher education is the
opportunity for the development. But this is not related to the good handwriting and also should
not have any deep technical knowledge, the person should be well versed in problem solving and
also have skills in critical thinking for facing any challenges during their higher education. This
also helps in developing their communications during the lectures as well as helps to develop the
listening skills also helps to be focused on the particular subject they are studying. Now in the
context of well being can benefit the professionals on the workplace have to discuss further.
MAIN BODY
The well being can benefit the professionals on the workplace.
The well being shows employees health status can directly, influence the employees work
behaviour in the organisation and also on the attendance, because every employees want to be
comfortable on their workplace and if they are not comfortable they are hiding themselves from
the responsibility and not do focus on their work, because being not comfortable creates
negativity on their workplace. So,rather than giving the professionals fancy perks and the
activities they have to give some mental and physical peace on the workplace, because this also
maintains their interest on their individual goals on the given task (Bryson, Stokes, and
Wilkinson, 2019). But sometimes mental health is being avoidable, this results in stigma and
social exclusion because this made harder for employee to deal with the mental health problems,
due to excess work pressure for managing their work they can not go for their monthly check-ups
to the hospitals and also can't do participate in their communities programmes, even sometimes
they also can't meet with their close family members and spend their time with them.
So, in professional life the work life balance has the high priority for the individual
because the employees does not give the proper attention to their health and work equally.

Recently the peoples have seen the number of initiatives have taken by the government, and also
by some business related to the charity have raise awareness of the mental health problems and
to help the peoples who are going through the mental health problems because they can return to
their employment. But sometimes the organisation unable to understand the problems of the
employees in this situation what activities can refresh their minds and at what time they are
giving some space to their employees for their well being. Due to this reason many people have
to take unpaid off because they can't manage their work properly and also because of they are
affected by severe health problems, these health problems can reduce with providing the
employees the flexibility in their working hours and locations and try to help them by providing
the reasonable change in the standard working provisions.
So, the employees can choose this option when they have to take for sick-off and also in
during some emergency (Feeney, 2018). And also this has been proven that people if provided
this flexible working hour can help them to restore their energy and and get back to their work
with more energy and fresh mind. This also helps to improve their quality of their work, but
some of them are thinking that being absent from their work would not being a good idea and
this would not helpful for them, some of the employees wants the enjoyment in their work
because they have some issues that they can't handle pressure and also they can't take leaves so
for that type of employees and their well being, the organisation have to find some alternatives,
so that they can enjoy their work as well as they do not need to take off. The mental health
problems can cause the peoples job retention because they are suffering from the metal-ill health,
they are unable to sustain there employment more than 12 months, and also there are the number
of peoples who are facing the health problems but doing their job because for the survival of
their family. But the outcome is the study is there are many organisations not thinking about the
well well being of their employees, they only think about how the employee can get completed
their work on the given deadline because if they can not complete this results loss of their
companies (Keinänen, Ursin, and Nissinen 2018). And also some of the peoples have the great
attachments from the labour market and their paid employment, and also many of the employees
telling stories about their continuous employment from over 20 to 30 years.
There were also being observed that some of the peoples are feeling that their condition
of the work has become the most compromising due to their imbalance of mental health
problems, and also some employee are thinking that this will give them the opportunity for
2

promotions and gain achievements because they are continuously working and avoiding their
well being and comfortable areas. Some of the companies never discuss about the difficulties of
their employee, that is the reason they are thinking there employment is in risk if they are discuss
about their well being and comfortable zone in their workplace. And this result s the stress and
anxiety also sometimes a lot of aggression and violence at work. Avoiding the sources of
workplace stress the people mental well-being were some of the things can faces the challenges
on the workplace. The people who had become feeling not well due to the stress related to their
work and also they are taking the light of their experience of the mental health issues and
continuously going through the stress (Paudel, 2021Payne, 2018).
There are several factors that peoples have find helpful in managing the employment and
mental health because of their financial problems and these things are helpful in job retention of
the employees. Apart from this the solution of these mental health issues is prioritising the well
being in the field of professionalism if this will applied in every organisation there is very less
problem caused related to health problems, because if the employee is comfortable in their work
they help to boost productivity and also helps to enhance the professionalism in the organisation
because employee are avoiding the leaves and wanted to do continuous work within the
organisation. And also this can help in higher employee morale that is the reason employee feel
more comfortable and valued when their needs is fulfilled that includes physical, mental, and
financial. As well as this can also increase the better talent of the employee that is the reason
they are feeling more professional than before and because of the professionalism the company
makes a good reputation in the market and as an employer of the company they respect and
supports their work life balance. Because happy employees are the best in making profit, if the
employer is treating them well in the organisation (Shen, and Ho 2020). These employers is
motivated and understand how they can attract their customers and can serve the good products
and services according to the customers needs and demands. So, if we the employer can take a
step and think about the well being of the employees there will be profit in every field either for
business, customers and also it helps in less loosing the employee in the organisation, and creates
the professionalism in their behaviour and also they are more responsible than before.
CONCLUSION
From the above assessment this topic is concluded and the conclusion is the thinking
about the employee well being is the most important thing within the organisation. If the
3

organisation does not thinks about the employee well being they are responsible for their mental
health issues, because most of the employees can not discuss about their mental and health
problems and working contentiously without taking any off, also they are unable to give time to
family and friends. This can cause the effect on their work and they are not able to do concentrte
on their work because work life balance is really very important thing for the employee. If this
will not done this can cause aggression and violence on their place of work and gives a bad
imapact on their professionalism. And if the employer is being conscious about the employee
well being this will not only enhance the value of the employees in their eyes, but also improve
their quality of work and also increase their professionalism toward their assigned work.
