Starting a Corporate Wellness Program

2 comments June 11th, 2008

In recent years, corporate wellness programs have become very popular and are used as tools to alleviate health care costs, increase productivity and boost morale.

After the initial creation of a wellness program, the largest challenge that companies face is gaining enough support to continue the wellness initiatives year after year. Often times,  it will take a year or two to build enough support and create a culture of wellness throughout an organization. Once the culture has been transformed, wellness initiatives will seem normal and almost expected.

The best advice is to not give up on a wellness program. Transforming a culture will not happen overnight.
