Wellness Programs In The Workplace | Ontario
Wellness Programs can boost workplace bottom lines using employee wellness programs and strategies to reduce absence & improve productivity
Today, savvy business leaders rely on sound strategies for improving productivity that directly and positively influence their bottom line. Addressing the well-being of their most important asset, their employees, represents a key strategic advantage for many companies.
Absenteeism and the recognition of presenteeism not only has significant and detrimental impact on business productivity, it places considerable strain on any organization’s ability to meet customer commitments and expectations.
Fact: Healthy employees deliver better results
Traditionally, employee initiatives have focused on physical safety and investments in comprehensive medical plans which largely address symptoms of illness. Recently there has been a focus on lifestyle related practices such as workplace wellness, nutrition and ergonomics e.g. the study of how a workplace and the equipment used there can best be designed for comfort, safety, efficiency, and productivity.
Despite the focus on workplace ergonomics, the single most influential aspect on an employee and their ability to perform optimally is good nutrition.
ROI: healthy employees = tangible returns
- Reduced Turnover ► Increased Employee Satisfaction

There is growing interest in an aspect of employee well-being which doesn't have to be costly, time consuming or complicated. That is a recognition of the strong link between nutrition and lifestyle choices on employee’s overall mental acuity, daily physical performance and longevity.
With the modernization and graying of the workforce, employees are becoming increasingly aware of these influences on their health and performance in the workplace. Employers are also noticing that a neglect of this aspect has a detrimental impact on business performance.
