Four Benefits of Employee Fitness/Wellness
Programs
 |
Benefit #1
Enhancing Employee
Acquisition/Retention
Hiring good employees is
both difficult and costly; keeping them is your biggest
challenge! Extras or perks with a high perceived value are
among the strongest ways to let your employees know just
how much you value them. Whether you opt to pay the entire
amount for your employee, a portion of it or make the
decision based on merit or rank, you’re sure to send a
strong message that you value their service and care about
their well being.
The US
Federal Government
recognizes the value
of Employee Fitness Programs
to help recruit new hires, as do 67
of the Fortune 100.
Fitarius Fitness offers
a cost-effective way for you to stand apart from the pack
in recruiting elite employees, by investing in their
well-being up-front.

Benefit #2
Improving Employee Morale/Satisfaction
The teambuilding that occurs in the
group-format Boot Camp workouts is invaluable in
developing pride in being together and leads to
cooperation in the workplace. This is simply invaluable to
productivity! Much more is accomplished at the workplace
when employees respect their colleagues and come to work
feeling like they are part of the team!
Montreal-based Saatchi
& Saatchi Advertising found that 75% of the employees
enrolled said that their workplace fitness program boosted
their morale.

Benefit #3
Increasing Workplace Productivity
There’s no denying that physical
exercise clears the mind and provides an excellent outlet
for increased emotional and physical health. Healthy
employees make for happy and well-adjusted employees. And
happy, well-adjusted employees make for highly productive
employees!

Benefit #4
Decreasing Absenteeism and Illness by
Increasing Workplace Health
Workplace Obesity "costs
U.S. employers more than $13 billion annually and it also
adversely affects the quality of life and health of their
workers," according to the National Business Group on
Health.
Physical Fitness has been proven
to increase immune response, thus reducing the
chances of routine illnesses. Reducing your employees'
sick days makes an immediate, measurable, and quantifiable
contribution to your firm's bottom line. |
