Wellness for Employees

Check out "Flu Near You" to see real-time flu symptoms in your area. How it works: Thousands of individuals submit weekly health reports to benefit their community. It’s the power of the crowd!

I think it’s a no-brainer to install a wellness program at every company, no matter the size, demographic, location or what service or product the company provides. My belief is that no company can be successful without paying attention to the well-being of their people — and people can’t be successful without feeling good every day.

Healthy People = Better Business

Here are the facts: Healthier people work harder, are happier, help others and are more efficient.  Unhealthy workers are generally sluggish, overtired and unhappy, as the work is a symptom of their way of life.

According to Corporate Wellness Magazine, every $1 invested in employee wellness programs yields roughly $4 in savings through reduced sick days, higher productivity and decreased overall health costs.
