What does the Curve of Life mean for you and your employees?
Life100+ helps employers understand and embrace the realities of longer lifespans—and how to support employees in living better, for longer. As people work and live well into later life, it’s more important than ever to create environments that promote wellbeing, satisfaction, and purpose at every stage.
Our research highlights a validated U-shaped trajectory in life satisfaction—what we call the Curve of Life. This model offers valuable insight into how satisfaction changes over time, why these shifts occur, and how employers can proactively support their workforce through each phase.
By understanding the Curve of Life, organisations can better anticipate employee needs, tailor support strategies, and foster a culture that empowers individuals to take back control of their life journey.
