Effective worksite wellness programs require significant human and technological support
to impact employee health and achieve tangible results, but most organizations lack the resources to do this effectively. Why? Organizations are designed to do what they do best: build cars, manage cities, run hotels, and so on. They are not in the business of managing employee health and well-being although, ironically, it is the health and well-being of their employees that ensures their success.
As a labour shortage looms pending the exodus of baby boomers from the workforce,
more and more organizations are recognizing and addressing the need for supportive worksite health policies and programs. There is a critical need to keep people at work
and healthy, and worksite wellness programming can do just that. The problem, however, is that most approaches to worksite wellness lack the key ingredients for effectiveness and sustainability:
- Time and cost effectiveness
- Participant engagement, convenience, and accessibility
- Comparable outcomes and results
