Let’s Dust Off That Mundane Wellness Program

Are you tired of the same ol’ mundane wellness programs? Weight loss, stress reduction, vaccine clinics, and corporate step challenges, all sounding familiar to you?

While we know these are all truly healthy activities, what you’ll find in traditional wellness programs, is that the quote un-quote ‘healthy’ employees are the only ones who participate.

Even though two years have passed, employees remain fearful of COVID-19 in the workplace.

Fatigued by change, and concerned about the future of work, all while health care costs and accommodations requests continue to rise, employers and employees are searching for ways to keep these costs under control and as manageable as possible.

This translates to many employers dusting off their traditional wellness programs and trading them in for something new, and no I don’t mean running out to buy yourself a brand-new pair of Nike’s to get healthy (even though is my favorite hobby).
Improving employee well-being means more than just lacing up those Nikes and stepping on a scale now and again.
