Employee Wellness Program

The best employee wellness programs are successful at the execution of the four components to create an effective program. These four components are essential for a behavior change which is the catalyst to healthier choices.

1. Awareness and education – Each communication and / or activity that an employee is exposed to helps the individual learn about good health practices and becoming self-aware.
2. Motivation – Its necessary to utilize a variety of motivation tools and techniques as motivation is not a one size fits all.
3. Skills and Tools – This is the “how” of behavior change. This can include things such as providing portion control education, healthy options company cookbook, stress management techniques, etc.
4. Culture and Environment – Taking a look at your company and creating an environment that supports the desired change. Do your policies reflect promoting health? Is the company workspace setup to promote health? Do you have convenient affordable accessibility to healthy food options?

It’s important to remember that an employee that does not feel good about their wellbeing often becomes disengaged and productivity decreases.
