Workplace Wellness Planning Page
Wellness programs are a way to impact employee short-term and long-term health. When properly designed, these programs can help improve productivity, increase employee engagement and in some instances, help control or reduce insurance costs. No two wellness programs are the same, and factors such as company culture, average employee age and activity level should all play part when creating an ideal wellness program. Here’s how many companies approach wellness.
What Do Wellness Programs Include?
- Onsite flu shots which can help reduce sick days
- Programs to help smokers become non-smokers which can have a significant impact on the worker’s health and insurance costs
- Cancer screening reminders or onsite screenings
- Fitness programs
Make Health a Core Value
Health and wellness should be integrated into a company’s core values to create effective change. This begins with incentivizing employees to change their habits.

Branding your Program
There are many ways to build a brand and create engagement with a wellness program. For example, giving away small prices or cash incentives for every small milestone met increases awareness and encourages consistent participation. You may also give away more valuable gifts, such as deluxe apparel, at the end of a campaign to keep a customer’s attention and extend product longevity.
