Unum UK launches ‘UnumSync’ to help employers manage staff health and wellbeing

Unum UK has launched a digital platform called UnumSync for group protection and health cash plan customers. 

The platform aims to help businesses manage the health and wellbeing of their employees all in one place.

UnumSync brings together product-specific content, on-demand insights into Help@hand usage, access to wellbeing resources, and a live chat function for quick answers, all in a single digital experience.

Saumya Barber (pictured), head of proposition development at Unum UK, said: “With limited visibility into emerging health trends and multiple products and systems to navigate, businesses are struggling to anticipate issues and make proactive decisions that help keep employees in work and get them back to work faster. 

“As rising sickness absence continues to impact productivity, employers need a smarter way to streamline support and drive positive outcomes.

“Employers want to support the health and wellbeing of their workforce and prevent issues before they escalate, but without the right tools it’s difficult to turn benefit investment into impact.”

Barber added: “UnumSync brings everything into one seamless experience – making it easier for people managers to access the insights they need to stay ahead, make smarter decisions, and focus on what matters most – their people.”
