If you own a business and want to lower health care costs and increase employee productivity, a Corporate Wellness Program may be for you!
Corporate wellness programs are designed to nurture wellness in workers, regardless of the work environment. In general, corporate wellness programs encourage people to take steps to prevent the onset or worsening of a health condition or sickness and to adopt lifestyles that are healthier. Businesses may implement many types of corporate wellness programs, from onsite gyms to simple wellness newsletters.
Studies have shown that workers are more likely to perform well when they are in feeling well both physically and mentally. Employees are also more likely to remain with and appreciate an employer that values them. Corporate wellness programs can improve company productivity by reducing the rate of absenteeism, enhancing job decision making and productivity and improving worker morale.
In addition to improved productivity, corporate wellness programs can be an effective tool in slowing the growth of health care costs. Selecting healthier options may reduce an employees chances of suffering from illness. Less illness means businesses can lower health plan utilization, thereby lowering health benefit costs, and consequently increasing earnings. While health cost savings from corporate wellness programs may be less evident than productivity gains, research shows that medically high-risk employees are medically high-cost employees as they use additional health care and generate higher claims.
