Workplace wellness can boost employee wellbeing and deliver meaningful business returns. But this can only happen when programs follow evidence-based best practices, which include individualized approaches to wellness that cater to employees’ unique needs and preferences.
Unfortunately, most wellness programs do not take this approach and impose generic, one-size-fits-all models onto entire workforces that often leads to low participation, lackluster health outcomes, and negative ROI for employers by not targeting individual employees’ needs, preferences and risk factors.
In contrast, programs that allow employees to address their own wellness goals and challenges can foster better employee engagement and health outcomes, reduce absenteeism, and lower employer healthcare costs.
In this episode, we interview Neepa Patel, CEO of WellRight, a corporate wellness company that delivers customizable wellness programs. We discuss why personalized wellness helps workers achieve better health outcomes, and helps employers achieve strategic objectives that matter to C Suites.
In this episode, you will hear:
- The difference between one-size-fits-all and personalized wellness
- The benefits to employees of taking a more personalized approach
- How personalized wellness can deliver better ROI
- How to redesign wellness programs around a personalized approach
- Companies who generate better returns from personalized wellness
By adopting these strategies, employers can empower employees to take ownership of their health and wellbeing, ultimately leading to improved outcomes for both individuals and the company as a whole.
