How Kent Companies Are Investing In Employee Wellbeing By Choosing Local Providers

Across Kent, more and more businesses are placing employee health at the heart of their strategy — and they’re doing it by working with local partners who understand their needs. This shift isn’t just about compliance or ticking a box; it’s about building long-term, people-first businesses where wellbeing drives performance.

As one of Kent’s independent occupational health providers, we’ve seen this first-hand. Over the past year, we’ve welcomed a number of new Kent clients, ranging from construction and logistics to education and professional services — many of them fellow Kent Invicta Chamber members.

Companies such as Jenner Group, Walker Construction, WW Martin and Stagecoach South East are all investing in their workforce by choosing a provider that’s not only local, but also rooted in shared values — fairness, quality, and community.

Why Local Partnerships Are On the Rise

Working with a Kent-based occupational health partner brings real advantages:

• Faster support and more flexible scheduling
• An understanding of local workforce challenges
• Face-to-face relationships, not call centre scripts

And it works both ways. For us, being a local provider means we can respond quickly, tailor our services, and build trust with teams over time.

Employee-Owned, Community-Focused

One thing that sets us apart is that All Health Matters became employee-owned in 2021. That means every member of our team has a stake in our success — and in the success of our clients. It’s made a tangible difference to the service we provide: our staff genuinely care, and that comes across in the way we support businesses and their employees.

We’re also committed to fair pricing and fair pay, which we know matters to many of our clients who want their supplier relationships to reflect their own values.

Looking Ahead

As more Kent companies focus on staff retention, wellbeing, and creating positive workplaces, we expect this move toward local, values-led occupational health partnerships to continue. We’re proud to be part of that story — and even prouder to be doing it alongside other brilliant Chamber members.
