Workplace Wellness
With chronic disease rates rising by more than 14% year on year, absenteeism, burn-out and worker’s compensation claims are also increasing, by even more. Additionally, an unwell workforce is apathetic, unproductive, and unable to enjoy life in or out of the workplace.
Savvy and compassionate employers know that by helping their employees to manage or reduce their weight, their diabetes, their hypertension, their smoking habits, to name just a few of the most pressing health issues, through employee wellness supports and programming, they can create a more desirable place to work and a healthier, more loyal team.
In fact, a survey by the American Psychological Society showed that 91% of workers at companies that supported their well-being through programs and on-site services reported they felt more motivated to do their best every day.
The Better Body at Work Method (BBWM) is a customized workplace wellness program designed to address the issues of most concern to your specific workplace.
