Furthermore, Floward understands that mental health is a dynamic aspect, intricately linked to various facets of life such as relationships, physical health, and financial well-being. Common challenges like anxiety, depression, and burnout necessitate a comprehensive approach to support employees both personally and professionally. Hence, Floward has partnered with Modern Health to implement a program aimed at enhancing the well-being of its employees and guiding them towards success.
