To cut consistently rising health care expenses, many companies are wisely implementing corporate wellness and fitness programs to support employees in improving and/or maintaining their health. This in turn reduces the corporate bottom line.
Companies that have established workplace wellness programs have been shown to reap the benefits of lowered health care costs, reduced employee sick days, and increased productivity and morale from employees.
The key to reducing healthcare costs is prevention. For each dollar spent on a preventative health program, companies can save up to six dollars in insurance costs.
Recent studies from University of Michigan and Johnson & Johnson revealed these advantages to companies which offer corporate wellness programsto their employees including:
- $1,100 a year for every employee who kicks the smoking habit,
- $269 a year for every employee who progresses from couch potato to fitness enthusiast;
- $1,200 a year on employees who reduce their cholesterol levels from 240 milligrams to 190 milligrams, and
- $177 a year for every employee who goes from obesity (more than 30 pounds overweight) to a healthy weight.
Other studies which were also published by the University of Michigan and Steelcase, have shown that corporate wellness programs reduce the risks and costs for serious illnesses, such as heart disease, by identifying high-risk employees and encouraging them to change their behaviors. Wellness experts agree that a Corporate Wellness Program is the best way to achieve this goal.
Teleclass Production
Many corporations and small companies are utilizing teleclasses as convenient and cost-effective ways to offer health education to remote staff as well as on-site workers. Teleclasses can be pre-recorded on a variety of health and wellness topics and made accessible to employees when it’s most convenient.
We can work with you in offering a productive, cost-effective and convenient wellness program through teleseminars.
