What could be the costs for not implementing a health program.
Estimated costs per day per 1 sick employee: €134 / 1300SEK (and rising).
Corporations can save money if they succeed in reducing sickness and absence. Natural Feedback helps corporations in succeeding.
Corporations with a focus on health and wellbeing for their employees will have 44% more satisfied employees compared to corporations who do not invest in health and wellbeing.
Health promotion programs are growing in popularity and many big companies are setting examples. Corporations saved millions of dollars because of promoting and implementing health programs. Wellness programs have become fundamental features in the benefits plans of many major organizations with Google as most notably.
Think of:
Google, Johnson and Johnson, NHS,
BMW,
SAP, Accenture, Cisco, Canon, Unilever
Heineken, Standard Chartered, KPMG.
Again;
According to industry studies every dollar invested in overall wellness efforts yields a return on investment of at least 1,50 dollar.
Nutrition is basically the first thing to look at when we think of improving health in combination with training.
Natural Feedback Sweden certified nutritionists and trainers would help and offer support for companies and individuals. We believe nutrition and training has to be seen holistic. What goes in the body and how we move will affect directly our brain, body and soul. To be able to thrive as a human being it is of great importance to give the body the best tools possible. If nutrition and movement are right, the body will respond in a good way.
Concentration, health, and the way we feel and function will improve. Personally and at work.
It is important for companies and corporations to understand that when employees eat the right food and do the right exercises their working abilities will improve and companies will benefit from that.
In current times, questions arise as in what to invest in as employers.
Only a good salary is now a days not enough. People are more and more aware and conscious and their abilities to have to perform 24/7 is questionable. Internet is great but also a great source of stress just like social media. When do we switch off, when do we recharge ourselves to be able to perform better and quicker in a shorter amount of time?
Answer is investing in health besides salary. In nutrition, solutions for stress reduction and proper movement training.
Natural Feedback delivers complete packages. Easy accessible with great professional software without loosing personal involvement.
