A Focus on Life Balance and Mental Health


In the spirit of supporting employees’ total well-being, we continue to foster a culture that encourages them to seek help through our employee assistance program, called Life Balance. U.S. employees and their family members have 24/7 access to Life Balance services and resources, including five free sessions of professional counseling; counseling through digital and text-based applications; and personalized mentoring over the phone from a life coach. Similar services are available to our employees in Canada and Europe. Life Balance also offers advice on how to manage working from home with kids and support resources for daily life needs such as finding child care or tutor services.
Throughout the pandemic, we continued to promote our mental health resources, including those focused on mindfulness, stress reduction and resiliency. Additionally, the Travelers Institute®, the public policy division of Travelers, highlighted mental health issues externally through its webinar series Wednesdays with Woodward®. The series explores personal and professional issues impacting our agents, our brokers, our customers, our employees and the communities we serve.
