the slide deck of a keynote i presented about workplace health strategies. We need to understand that health is more than an insurance premium or a whole body check up? It's about getting your mind and body 360 degrees, well. We do that through wellness profiling that assess 44 different areas of a persons life to determine what they are passionate and inspired to do, and the areas they could benefit from training, events and support.
These 44 markers fall into 9 ares:
STRESS
PACE OF LIFE
PHYSICAL HEALTH
MENTAL WELLBEING
WELLNESS BEHAVIOURS
COPING WITH PRESSURE
ATTITUDES TOWARDS HEALTH
SATISFACTION WITH LIFESTYLE
MANAGING HEALTH & WORK ISSUES
