Supporting people and companies alike

More and more people are feeling overwhelmed by work, frequently without the support they need. This issue goes beyond individuals. It affects entire organizations.

At Barona, we believe that wellbeing is a shared responsibility. It should be integrated into daily practices rather than being the sole responsibility of HR or occupational health.

You need models to recognize overload early, support managers and enable recovery before it is too late.

Our Philosophy

Helping people and organizations feel better

Barona Wellbeing is your partner for building a more sustainable working life

We all face pressure, life changes, and evolving job demands. That’s why wellbeing must be more than a separate initiative. It needs to be part of daily work and leadership.

We support leaders, managers, and employees in change. We strengthen work ability through coaching and guidance. We support re-employment and help people find direction when the path shifts.

For us, wellbeing means actions: listening, improving, and delivering solutions that truly take root. For individuals, teams, and society.

Challenges that we can help with

Hyvinvointi ei synny yhdestä toimenpiteestä, vaan rakentuu monen tekijän yhteispelistä. Tässä esimerkkejä tilanteista, joissa olemme tuoneet asiakkaillemme ratkaisuja.

You can’t improve wellbeing with a single action or program. Wellbeing is built by connecting different pieces together. Here are some examples of situations where we’ve helped our customers create sustainable solutions.

When there is a need to strenghten work ability

An employee’s work ability has declined, but help hasn’t come in time
The physical or mental demands of work are causing strain
There are risks or confusion around workplace safety
You want to reduce sick leave and help people stay at work

When leadership needs support

The work community shows signs of stress, conflict, or low engagement
Someone is struggling in their role and you need a situational assessment and new options
You want to build trust and strengthen team spirit by developing leadership skills
When you want to lead change situations in a humane and respetcul way.

When people and roles don’t align

Roles are changing, but support for competence development is missing
Working life skills and interaction skills need strengthening.
Onboarding is more overwhelming than helpful
You need support for lifelong learning, career planning, or redefining direction

When motivation or direction is fading

The sense of purpose has faded and motivation is low
Change is met with resistance or uncertainty
Work feels fragmented – people need clarity, direction, or career guidance
You want to build a culture where everyone feels valued and included
