Let’s talk about health at work? The last few years have proved what we already knew: keeping your health up to date needs to be at the center of attention. Finally, people realized that health is true wealth. After all, when the body is not doing well, everything else stops working.
In this regard, there has been a major shift in priorities around the world and, as a result, there is an increasing inclination of employees towards corporate healthcare benefits.
And this health care should be part of the companies’ strategy, because the most valuable asset of any business are its employees. Without them, nothing happens. And for that, there is no secret: take care of people and people will take care of your company!
Do you want to know more about workers’ health and how to implement a corporate health project in your company? See below the special content we have prepared!
Benefits of health promotion at work
The benefits of implementing a corporate health project, for the employee himself, are clear: access to quality medical care, disease prevention and greater peace of mind in everyday life.
But what about the company? Days off on special days, flexible schedules, reimbursement of courses and bonuses are excellent benefits. However, offering access to a corporate benefit that makes it possible to take care of health is the great differential in recruiting and retaining talent. Yes, many professionals fail to choose a company due to the absence of a corporate health project.
In fact, a study sponsored by the Limeade Institute showed that 60% of workers intend to stay in their jobs for three years or more because they feel cared for by the company. Of these, 90% would indicate the company as an exceptional place to work.
And the promotion of health and well-being projects not only improve the morale of professionals, reducing absenteeism, but also reduce expenses with future leaves. A healthier team is less likely to get sick.
In this sense, it is worth mentioning that productivity also tends to increase when there are health care initiatives (physical and mental). Healthy and happy people produce more and better.
According to a survey carried out by the University of Warwick, happy professionals perform up to 12% more. On the other hand, stressed and dissatisfied employees perform 10% less. That is, well-being is synonymous with better performance.
Thus, there is no doubt that the employee and the company benefit when there is an initiative focused on health care.
