Is your Organization Healthy, Engaged and Motivated?
Creating a culture of wellness is critical — both for the health of the employees, and the bottom-line of the organization. An organization is most productive and profitable when all employees are operating at their best — when both the leaders of the organization and the front-line employees are healthy, engaged and motivated.
If you can describe your organization with these three adjectives, organizational health care costs will undoubtedly stabilize or decline. Your organization will become more productive and better able to retain and attract top talent.
Chronic Disease is a Huge Driver of Increased Health Care Costs, Increased Rates of Absenteeism and Lower Productivity
Chronic diseases and conditions — such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and arthritis — are among the most common and costly of all health problems. Chronic disease is a significant driver of increased health care costs, increased rates of absenteeism and lower productivity for your employees.
Fortunately, much of the chronic condition is attributable to modifiable behavior — behavior that can be changed. Modifiable behaviors — with two of the largest being physical inactivity and poor management of stress — contribute to chronic conditions which, in turn, drive approximately 86% of our nation’s health care costs.
Strategies that Change Behavior is a Win/Win!
The good news as an organization is that if employees are able to recognize, identify and improve various behaviors (physical inactivity and poor management of stress, for example), medical costs will be lowered, productivity increased and absenteeism rates lowered. It’s a win/win for the health of your employees and for the overall performance of your organization.
