Providing a wellness program is a great way for your organization to create a culture of healthy living and invest in your most important resource — your employees.
With rising health care costs and the push to do more with less, the health of your employees is a pivotal piece contributing to better productivity. Plus, it gives your employee benefit program an added option that leads to greater employee satisfaction and retention.
Companies that partner with the Y can offer their employees much more than just physical fitness, such as childcare, before and after-school care, summer camp and volunteer opportunities.
