Corporate WellnessA healthy work force is beneficial to your business, bottom line, and employees. In a competitive work environment healthy motivated workers get the job done. If you think the costs of implementing a corporate wellness program are prohibitive, you may be surprised to learn that significant savings can be realized with such a program in place.
Wellness seminars are a good first step in introducing wellness programs. There are five stages of change which influence how people respond to programs. One stage is neither better nor worse than another. It simply is where people are. Seminars can introduce information for those desiring to learn something new or learn more; they offer an opportunity of helping people who need hints on being prepared for launching into action. Those actively pursuing appreciate reminders of how far they have come. Significant change doesn’t ‘stick’ unless unhealthy lifestyle habits are replaced with healthy ones. Walking presentations are well received due to amazing benefits of walking.
