The writer describes how forward-looking companies are developing new initiatives that boost worker health and well-being, everything from onsite health screenings to exercise equipment and meditation classes. The results: greater worker retention, higher productivity and fewer absences.
Subsequent to describing the importance of deciding which well-being problems to address, and who your system is for, she supplies a six-ingredient recipe for leaders to design and execute a plan that suits their organizational culture. In the end, she shows that you do not have to turn all of your employees into super-athletes addicted to blueberry smoothies for your investment to pay off: even a modest decrease in work force health risks will enable you to and reap the rewards of a healthier work force.
