7 Things Employers Know About Your Health
Healthier Employees are Good for Business
We’ve all been there: we’re trying to eat healthily and move more, but other priorities get in the way. It turns out that businesses have discovered that having a wellness program is a win-win for the employees and employers.
Businesses find that investing in their employees’ health is good for business. It’s not just the workers who benefit; those same companies can experience less absenteeism and increased productivity when promoting healthy lifestyles among staff members.
Here are some of the benefits of focusing on your health:
- Regular exercise improves immunity – Not only are you less likely to get sick, but you’ll also be better equipped to fight off any illness that comes your way.
- You’ll have more energy – Feeling run down and tired makes it hard to focus on your work or everyday tasks.
- Your stress levels will go down – Chronic stress can lead to health problems, including heart disease and obesity.
- A healthy lifestyle can help to prevent or improve depression and anxiety.
- Reducing stress and more exercise will reduce your cardiovascular risk – For example, a moderately paced walk after a meal reduces cholesterol and increases blood flow.
- The quality of your sleep will improve – Studies have shown that people who make healthy lifestyle choices tend to sleep better.
- Regular exercise will help with brain function, memory, and productivity.
And finally, you’ll have lower health care costs. Employers often see a decrease in health care costs when they offer wellness programs.
Suppose you are not currently employed, or your company does not have a wellness program. In that case, you can create a wellness program for yourself. It may take a little effort to get started, but the benefits are well worth it.
Just think how good you’ll feel when you reach your goals and improve your health!
