Read on to find out exactly how embracing corporate health and wellbeing can better your entire organization:
Bettering Your Organization With Corporate Health and Wellbeing
With a strategic, well-executed corporate health and wellbeing program, you can increase wins for your business as a whole. Wondering how, exactly? Successful corporate health and wellbeing initiatives have the potential to better your entire organization, helping to:
Corporate wellbeing programs impact the whole workplace, creating a culture of health where “leadership, benefits, policies, incentives, programs and environmental supports” are completely aligned. Not only are employees more likely to make healthy lifestyle choices, but they’re also more likely to be productive and energized on the job.
Improve recruitment and retention
Enhanced recruitment and retention are among the biggest benefits of corporate health and wellbeing programs. More than 60% of job seekers say corporate health and wellbeing programs are important to them when considering whether or not to apply for an open role. On top of that, existing employees are significantly more likely to stick it out with an organization that’s invested in their overall health and wellbeing.
Gain a competitive advantage
With better employee recruitment, retention and engagement comes an invaluable competitive advantage. The most effective corporate health and wellbeing programs allow organizations to compete more effectively in their respective industries, beating out competitors in the race for top-tier talent.
Boost workplace productivity
The best corporate health and wellbeing programs increase workplace productivity and engagement while also reducing presenteeism, or being physically present yet unproductive at work. In fact, at least 62% of employees with access to a corporate health and wellbeing program said it increased their productivity at work.
Provide a happy work environment
Increased employee engagement and satisfaction are also benefits of well-run corporate health and wellbeing programs. Happy, healthy employees are more productive, innovative, social and committed to the cause. Additionally, a happier work environment boosts team camaraderie and lends itself to team-building efforts.
Create a more resilient workforce
Engaged, healthy employees tend to be more resilient, with better stress management and the ability to bounce back amid future uncertainties.
