Top Reasons to Implement a Corporate Wellness Program
Improved productivity
On average a worker in the United States loses 115 productive work hours every year to a health condition. The majority of the lost time from these conditions is undetectable to employers as it occurs on the job. (Corporate Training Monthly, volume 1 no.9 July 5,2002)
Lower Medical Claims
According to the Wellness Councils of America in 2002, medical costs can consume half, or more, of a company's profits.
Reduced Absenteeism
Absenteeism due to stress increased 316% from 1995 to 2000. (USA Today Magazine, April 2000)
The total cost to employers in lost productive time for all health conditions is approximately $2000 per employee per year. (Corporate Training Monthly, volume 1 no.9 July 5, 2002)
Reduced Employee Turnover
Company wellness programs show your employees that you not only value them but their well-being.
