Effective wellness programs recognize the significance of building a supportive cultural environment. The workplace culture includes shared values/heartfelt beliefs about what is significant. It includes social standards of expected and accepted behavior called “cultural norms.”
It includes peer support from family, friends, and co-employees. This support can help one adopt healthy lifestyles. Tools are available to audit a corporation.
The long-term success of any wellness program is dependent on the corporate culture.
Some healthy culture signs in a employer are:
workers communicate openly
Leaders support diversity and opinion
staff members have fun
Policies support wellness
employees are encouraged to grow
staff members work together as a team
workers’ skills and talents are matched to their jobs.
Flexible work schedules are available
Employers consider staff members as their most significant asset
