Too many people drop out. Not because no one saw it coming, but because nothing was in place to intervene in time.

Mental health issues are often visible long before someone drops out. Yet timely support still fails to arrive. Not out of unwillingness, but because of fragmented services and slow processes.

‍We started Empowr because we saw how often things go wrong, even though it doesn’t have to be that way. Because we believe that proper support isn’t a luxury - it’s a basic requirement for sustainable work.

Through one clear, accessible platform, HR gains access to over 400 certified professionals: from psychologists and stress coaches to experts in sleep, grief, and lifestyle.

We ensure the right match, take care of the logistics, and give HR the insight and control they need throughout the process.

This way, organizations stay in control - and people get the kind of help that truly makes a difference.

Our Story

Making a sustainable impact

The world is changing at a rapid pace. We are becoming increasingly individualistic, experiencing constant pressure to be accessible and feel little room for error. All of this can lead to a considerable work-life imbalance.

We want to change that and that's why we started Empowr. So that we can help companies keep their employees healthy and happy. With our platform, we support companies on this important topic and empower their people. We do this by bringing highly qualified welfare professionals together in one place.
‍
With the help of empowr. companies can improve the well-being and performance of their employees while reducing healthcare costs, stress, burnouts and turnover. The result: healthier, happier and more engaged employees!
