Challenge

• There are many program offerings dealing with employee wellness. How do you decide what is right for your workforce?
• Employee health is important to your business. What would happen if a large portion of your workforce was too sick to come to work?
• Communicable diseases such as influenza (flu) can have a devastating effect on a workforce. Vaccinations are available for free from family physicians. Often employees do not get vaccinated because of the effort involved or lack of knowledge.
• Employees often do not have knowledge of health and healthy lifestyle options
• An aging workforce is driving the need for health and wellness initiatives
• HR and Health and Safety personnel may not know how to design an effective health and wellness plan
