Wellness programs provide employers with strategies and solutions that improve employee health and general wellbeing issues. Moreover, these corporate wellness courses focus on edification and measures to prevent negative health outcomes and reinforce positive workplace culture.
An effective wellness program includes health promotion, an award system for committed employees, wellbeing and mental health policies, a greater work-life balance, flexible working hours, equal and fair opportunity, professional training, and more.
On the other hand, wellbeing workshops are often 1-2 hour sessions that focus on one central topic, like mental health for employees within the organization.
How Wellness Programs Facilitate Positive Change
People worldwide expect to continue working from home post-pandemic. Learning to adjust and embrace these lifestyle changes is more important than ever. In fact, for many, this means working while running a household, schooling children, and finding a way to face the challenges of a blurred work-home life.
Throughout this period, healthy lifestyle behaviors and habits can help employees keep a positive state of mind, reduce mental health issues, and maintain balance.
The Creators of Wellness Programs
Wellness programs are created by HR Managers, Leadership, and/or People and Culture specialists, and third-party providers specializing in workplace wellbeing. For smaller teams, the wellbeing program is entirely created by an outsourced specialist to maintain cost efficiencies.
The Wellness Workshop’s workplace wellbeing programs are created specifically to meet the organization’s objectives, size, budget, and resources.
All strategies are evidence-based and developed by an organizational psychologist, accredited wellness coach, accredited practicing dietitian, exercise physiologist, mindfulness teacher, and personal trainer.
This ensures strategies consider all aspects of mental, physical, and vocational health to increase productivity and engagement while reducing staff absenteeism, high turnover, and work-related stress.
