Panel discussion: Designing whole person care at scale: what the system must support

Mainstream healthcare increasingly aspires to whole person care, yet delivery is constrained by how systems are designed to operate. Clinical pathways, incentives, workforce models, and policy frameworks shape what is feasible in practice. This session examines the structural conditions that enable or inhibit integrated, relational, and preventative care, focusing on operating models, capacity, and system alignment rather than individual effort.

• How operating models and incentives shape care behaviour
• The impact of workforce capacity, fragmentation, and moral injury on delivery
• What system-level design changes make whole person care workable at scale

Featuring:

• Royal Society for Public Health Chief Executive, William Roberts
• University of Oxford Professor of Psychiatry, Prof. Kam Bhui
• NHS England National Clinical Expert in Occupational Health & Wellbeing, Dr. Shriti Pattani OBE

Keynote presentation: Why benefits strategies are failing employers and employees alike in driving effective outcomes

Even with the advent of various technologies and wellbeing coming to the fore as a workplace phenomenon, for most employers, the approach to workplace health hasn’t materially changed in 30 years. Decisions are still based upon incomplete understandings of cost and value and over-indexed to antiquated criteria, such as reward, not outcomes.

In this session, Howden will be taking the findings from its latest Benefits Design research and Global Health Trends report to give you:

• A clear blueprint for a strategic approach to managing benefits, including the right metrics, tools, data and cadence;
• The signals that are coming from both UK and Global health trends as to what’s working and what’s not
• A new way to think about the relationship between reward, benefits and wellbeing and your likely next steps

Featuring:

• Howden Employee Benefits Executive Director, Matthew Gregson

Panel discussion: Designing employer health systems that work: moving beyond programmes and perks

Most employer wellbeing efforts fail not because people resist them, but because organisational systems are not designed to support health in practice. Incentives, consent models, job design, performance pressure, and risk management frameworks quietly shape what is possible long before any programme is launched. This session examines how large organisations are redesigning employer health from a system perspective - treating workforce health as a core operational and risk issue rather than a cultural add-on.

• How governance, consent, and accountability shape real health outcomes
• Where occupational health is constrained by legal, commercial, and capacity limits
• What changes when health is treated as operational infrastructure, not engagement
• How large employers reconcile evidence, ethics, and scalability

Featuring:

• Haleon EMEA Occupational Health Lead, Dr. Clare Fernandes
• Google Clinical Lead for Occupational Health - EMEA, Dr. Paul McGovern

Panel discussion: Building durable capacity: what large employers are changing to reduce burnout

Many organisations are asking for sustained high performance while operating in ways that steadily erode workforce capacity. Workload, job design, management span, operating cadence, recovery, and performance pressure all shape whether people can maintain output without rising absence, fatigue, error, and attrition.

This session examines burnout as an organisational design issue rather than an individual resilience problem. It explores what large employers are changing in practice to protect capacity, reduce workforce risk, and sustain performance more effectively over time.

• How organisational conditions shape burnout, fatigue, absence, and performance instability
• What large employers are changing to strengthen workforce capacity in practice
• Which structural levers help sustain output without increasing risk, depletion, and attrition
