Smart Steps To Health
Providing tangible benefits to the health of the employees AND the bottom line of the company.
“Smart Steps To Health” is a program for businesses and organizations to support the physical, mental, and emotional health and well-being of their employees or members.
Wellness is a hot topic because so many of today’s modern chronic conditions can be avoided or corrected with proper lifestyle modifications and healthier habits. Unfortunately, many individuals are confused about what self-care measures are effective and are looking for additional information, resources and guidance.
Leave your employees not only with new awareness, but also the tools of how to put that knowledge into practice. Knowledge is powerful – but without action, it alone yields few results. On the other hand, increased awareness and understanding combined with hands-on tools and new skill sets lead to action and positive changes which continue to move individuals forward in their wellness goals.
Further success is achieved by the ability of corporate sponsored programs to remove the challenge of where to find the time for self-care by providing educational offers, classes and individual services on-site during or around working hours.
Company and Employee Benefits
Lack of good health contributes to decreased productivity, absenteeism, and rising insurance costs to an estimated loss of $2,000 per year per employee.
Employees are vital assets and healthy employees are a key component to the overall health of the organization. As a business, anytime you are able to reduce stress and encourage well-being in your employees you reap benefits. Some benefits include:
- Decreased sick days
- Fewer workman compensation injuries
- Increased productivity due to increased energy levels
- Increased employee retention due to higher worker satisfaction
- Greater inner-office harmony
