All-Inclusive Company Wellness Programs involve all staff members, deal with all major health risks, offers choices, and target both the staff members and the worksite environment; support periodic evaluation of its results. All-Inclusive Company Wellness Programs emphasize follow-up and offers support for the employee as long as he/she is employed. Research studies have demonstrated this approach to be highly thriving. Key components are planning, implementation, and evaluation.
Starting inclusive Employee Health Promotion Programs involve performing a needs and interest assessment, appointing a Employee Health Promotion Program Committee, selecting wellness providers, setting goals and objectives for the corporate wellness program, marketing/promoting the program, and establishing procedures to ensure confidentiality.
Implementation of comprehensive Workplace Wellness Programs consist of five major tasks:
1. Health assessment and referral
2. Follow-up and counseling staff members
3. Follow-up with physicians
4. Health improvement programs
5. Organizing workplace-wide activities.
Assessment involves monitoring Company Wellness Programs to learn if it is working and to help you refine it. Measuring success shows what you have achieved, helps justify expenditures, and supports information for management to support continued programming.
