Health promotion pays off

Investing in workplace health promotion pays off. Here we would like to present some of the good arguments for working on health and well-being at work:
First of all, healthy employees are happy employees, who have more energy and thrive in the workplace. Workplace health interventions have been shown to increase employee satisfaction and engagement, which reduces the likelihood that employees will encourage them to change jobs.

In addition, health promotion initiatives can create a good image of the company both externally and internally. As well as being perceived positively by employees, it can also help to recruit new employees.

Exercise can lead to increased productivity and quality

If employees spend time exercising during working hours, this is paid back in increased productivity and higher quality delivery. In addition, working on health in the workplace reduces sick leave. For these reasons, health interventions can also often pay off on the bottom line. According to the University of Michigan Health Research Center, companies that work strategically with health initiatives achieve a Return On Investment of 1.5 to 12. This means that for every $1.5 to $12 invested in health initiatives, the company gets $1.5 to $12 back.

Exercise is a win-win for everyone

To give an overview, it can be summarized that health promotion pays off for the individual employee, the company and society. The employee benefits in the form of increased job satisfaction, a better working environment and better health, as well as more energy and energy.

For the company, the benefits can include lower sickness absence, increased productivity and more employee engagement. It also increases the attractiveness of the workplace, which can attract new employees and retain old ones.

Society benefits in terms of reduced health and social care costs, higher productivity, a possible increase in life expectancy and reduced health inequalities.
To make the most of the benefits of health interventions, health must be considered as part of the company's values and health must be taken into account in management decisions.
