Wellness Programs: The Good, The Bad, and The Incentives

We all know that feeling of being stuck at work, staring at a screen, and feeling like a potato. But what if we told you that wellness programs could help you feel like a sweet potato instead? A systematic review of 33 studies published in PubMed, CINAHL, and other sources from 2000-2011 looked at the impact of worksite wellness programs on health and financial outcomes. Here's what they found:

🏋️‍♀️ 8 out of 13 studies found improvements in physical activity

🍎 6 out of 12 studies found improvements in diet

🧍‍♀️ 6 out of 12 studies found improvements in body mass index/weight

🧠 3 out of 4 studies found improvements in mental health

🚬 6 out of 7 studies found significant reductions in tobacco use

🍺 2 out of 3 studies found significant reductions in alcohol use

🛌 All 4 studies on absenteeism and 7 out of 8 studies on healthcare costs estimated significant decreases

But wait, there's more! Only 2 out of 23 studies evaluated the impact of incentives and found positive health outcomes and decreased costs. So, while wellness programs may not be a magic cure-all, they can definitely have some positive effects on your health and your wallet. So, next time your boss offers a wellness program, give it a try – your body and bank account will thank you! 💰💪

WORKPLACE WELLNESS: THE MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY. ARE YOU TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT?

Workplace wellness is a multi-billion-dollar industry, with a majority of large employers offering wellness programs. However, many employers are not following best practices in designing and implementing these programs, and many employees are not taking advantage of them.

Here’s the dirty details : 

  • The Return On Wellbeing Institute's study identified six best practices for effective employee wellness initiatives: strategic approach, culture as a priority, whole-person approach, leadership support, purpose as a priority, and measuring returns.

  • A whole-person approach to wellness that addresses physical, mental, and financial well-being is more effective than focusing solely on physical health.

  • Leadership support, including CEO involvement and communication, is crucial for creating a supportive work environment and cultivating a culture of health.

  • Workplace culture plays a significant role in employee well-being and satisfaction, and companies should prioritize employee well-being as part of their cultures.
