Significant improvements in employee health, as well as reduced costs for employers are made possible through worksite wellness programs. More than 400 studies prove that worksite wellness programs impact health behavior and risks. Such impacts include reducing sick leave costs, workers comp costs, and costs associated with disability. There are also productivity-related economic effects.
Employers can expect incredible savings as a result of their wellness initiatives. Using the Quality of Work Life and Traditional models, employers could expect a return on investment (ROI) of about 3:1 (three dollars returned for every dollar invested) within about 18 months. The newer prevention technologies offered in Health and Productivity Management can produce an ROI of anywhere between 6:1 and 15:1. That’s an incredible savings that employers can’t afford to ignore. For additional information, please visit the following link http://www.welcoa.org/freeresources/pdf/larry_chapman_qa_092508.pdf
