Health and Wellness programs are one of the latest trends in the Incentive Marketplace.  Not only is there call for companies to do more to ensure employees are living healthier, but there are even fiscal benefits for companies that run these types of programs.

What Types of Activities Are You Rewarding?

• Weight Loss – Losing weight, maintaining a healthy weight or improving one’s BMI (Body Mass Index)
• Physical Activity/Exercise – 30 Minutes of Moderate to Vigorous activity 3 or more days per week
• Smoking Cessation – Active participation in smoke free program and successful months staying smoke free
• Diabetes Management – Improve or maintain satisfactory HbA1c Level
• Relaxation/Reducing Stress – Participation in stress reduction activities for 60 minutes per week

How Does The Program Work?

Employees decide on the kinds of activities they want to do to meet the goals of the health area they have chosen.  They must follow the program in sequence and provide documentation that they have met their goals to progress to the next level.  If an employee completes an entire program, they can be re-enrolled in the following year in a higher category and can earn increasingly valuable gifts and incentives.

What is the Benefit for the Company?

• Employees who are healthier have a lower absentee rate
• Wellness programs are proven to lower health care costs by up to 15%
• Government stimulus exists that can reimburse your company for much of the money you invest
• Running this or any other incentive program improves loyalty and creates a better work environment
