As employers continue to look for ways to manage rising health care costs, many are turning to workplace wellness programs to improve employees’ well-being and to help manage or prevent chronic conditions. According to a recent study from Health Affairs, a health care policy journal, for every dollar spent on wellness, medical costs drop an average of $3.27 and absenteeism costs fall by $2.73. If developed and implemented effectively, your company could achieve a similar return on investment (ROI) on your wellness initiatives.
The idea of designing a workplace wellness program from scratch, though, can be overwhelming. Workplace wellness programs require thorough planning and a keen eye for detail. Haphazardly rolling out a wellness program can alienate employees and become a financial strain on your organization.
