benefits of working together
We believe a successful workplace health and wellbeing program is based on a long-term, genuine partnership. Our approach focuses on collaboration, working to create a bespoke program that responds to your specific business needs, whilst keeping the individual as its focus. Benefits of working together include:
improving health... Workplace health and wellbeing programs can directly improve employee’s wellbeing by reducing risk factors such as obesity, high cholesterol, poor eating, physical inactivity and stress. A 2008 study on obesity management through a workplace program saw a 21% decrease in poor eating habits and a 15% increase in physical activity.
saving money... Quality workplace health and wellbeing programs can reduce absenteeism by up to 20%, which equates to a substantial economic benefit. Further, quality workplace health initiatives can expect a return on investment (ROI) commonly between $5 to $6 for every dollar invested in your program.
improving productivity... Promoting and encouraging happy, healthy living in the workplace is critical. Your business’s healthiest people are about 2-3 times more productive that your unhealthiest people.
getting your message heard... Tailored, personalised health and wellbeing programs which utilise goal setting techniques, counseling and motivational interviewing have proven success in helping people make and maintain positive health behaviour changes.
showing you care... Workplace health and wellbeing programs can contribute to a vibrant workplace and culture. Providing engaging programs increases employee satisfaction and employer of choice status.
engaging & retaining your people... companies that promote health and wellbeing are four times more likely to retain staff in the next 12 months. This leads to improved employee engagement, a stronger workplace culture and substantial financial benefit.
