We have listened to the needs and concerns of employees which has enabled us to put together a comprehensive healthy lifestyles package to help to inspire healthier choices though education, health tests, activities and fun! Our healthy lifestyles package encourages employees to try a healthier lifestyle. Your package can be tailored around your workplace needs, we can come to your offices or host you at one of our centres. The day can include fun activities from bubble football to tai chi or dance classes to yoga. As well as this, we offer presentations which discuss the key issues for optimal health in the workplace in our everyday lives. We also give health tests through blood pressure checks and body composition scans; showing what's going on inside your body. Body Composition Scans The most successful way of realising that we need to make health choice changes is by seeing a picture of our own health, inside and out. Body scans look like a set of scales but within in 30 seconds of standing on them it will provide an insight into your health and fitness. Tests results include muscle, bone, water, fat kg and percent. Goals can be set to decrease body fat and increase muscles mass which will improve metabolic rate which will help with weight loss. Benefits to the employer Benefit to Employers include increased productivity, decreased rates of absenteeism and improved staff retention. The benefits of improving the workplace health are significant and wide-ranging, investing in workplace health makes good business sense. Evidence gathered by the British Heart Foundation has shown: The return on investment for some workplace health initiatives can range from £2 to £34 for every £1 spent. The median cost of sickness absence per UK employee in 2013 was £595, and the indirect and hidden costs of sickness can make up around nine percent of an employer’s annual costs. Reduced sickness absence was evident in 82 percent of workplace health programmes. Benefits to the employee The benefits to employees include improved physical and mental health, decrease in sick leave, reduced stress, reduced back pain and increased motivation.
