Corporate Wellness programs are long-term solutions to educate your workforce, promote healthy lifestyles, and ultimately reduce the cost of healthcare and loss of productivity.
There are many benefits to implementing a well-organized corporate wellness program within your organization. Headlines consistently talk to the rising healthcare costs, and employers continue to look for ways to save. Studies show that companies that choose to implement wellness programs spend less money on both insurance premiums and medical claims compared to organizations without wellness programs.
The facts are startling:
With every 1 percent increase in Body Mass Index (BMI), an individual’s annual healthcare costs increase by $120 (Source: Boston Globe www.boston.com).
70% of healthcare costs in the United States are preventable (Source: American Heart Association www.americanheart.org).
However, a wellness program is not only about saving money on insurance rates and healthcare costs. It is also about improving quality of life for employees and addressing the issues inherent with an aging workforce. The Baby Boomers are getting older and many are electing to remain in the workforce rather than retire. With increased age comes increased risk for health problems. Implementing a corporate wellness program, backed by a dependable and accurate physical activity monitor such as the BioTrainer will allow you to curtail bad habits, reinforce healthy lifestyles, and motivate your workforce.
Whether you are establishing a corporate wellness program or seeking to improve an existing one, measurable and objective data is critical to the success and longevity of a corporate wellness program. The BioTrainer Activity Monitor and BioTrainer Monitoring System will allow you to track and record physical activity metrics for your employees and their family.
When you incorporate the BioTrainer into a wellness program, you also encourage active participation from your employees. You can set up virtual competitions, create an award points programs, and educate in a smart, high tech manner that will encourage healthy behaviors longer than a simple lecture or company bulletin board.
