As part of its overall mission LifeWalk provides a tailored worksite health promotion (WHP) program within organizations. It’s no secret that times are tough for business. Many companies are trying to stay competitive by reducing costs. In that context employee healthcare expenses are a major problem. They often cost as much of 50% of company profits and, by all reports, will continue increasing for the foreseeable future. WHPs are one solution in which everyone wins. They can (a) reduce employer healthcare costs, (b) increase employee productivity, and (c) increase peoples’ overall quality of life.

LifeWalk can asses your company’s, non-profit organization’s, or government entity’s specific circumstances and customize a program that fits your needs and budgets. Small, non-competing businesses can form WHP consortiums that allow them to do more together than on their own.

When you think about what health promotion can do for your organization, consider the following:

Here are some interesting corporate wellness statistics:

• Fifty+ % of U.S. companies are operating some form of corporate wellness program.
• Corporate statistics show that clearly thought out wellness initiatives can save $2.30
   to $10.10 for every $1 spent on them.

Research has detailed that company wellness programs can:

• Reduce healthcare costs and expenses.
• Reduced absenteeism.
• Increased employee productivity.
• Improvement in employee morale and camaraderie.
• Reduced employee turnover.
• Decreased injuries and health problems, limiting disability and worker’s compensation
   costs.
• Enhanced recruitment potential.

Finally, employees who participate in WHP programs report:

• Increased health and energy.
• Improved self-esteem.
• Decreased stress levels.

LifeWalk can help your organization gain these benefits. We have many years of experience working with companies. It is also noteworthy that LifeWalk’s professional staff members, through their affiliation with Professional & Personal Excellence International have been providing Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) services to employees of local companies including Cox Cable; Scripps Hospital, and the Marriot.
