Investing in the wellness of your employees
1. Do you agree with these statements ?
ďEmployees are our most important asset
ďHealth is wealth
ďHealthy employees = healthy bottom lines
2. Why do employee wellness
programs fail ?
DR MALPANI, MD
FOUNDER

3. Why programs fail
ďNot enough money
ďNot enough management support
ďEmployees do not understand the importance of
health and wellness
ďEmployees are not interested
ďOften, itâs the managers themselves who create the
unhealthy behaviour by stressing the employees !
4. Why donât employees participate ?
ďWITFM ? HR department is implementing the
program for the company , not for me.
ďLack of trust ! What is being done with my personal
health information ?
ďPrograms are not tailored to my needs
ďI am required to use personal time to participate
ďBoring !
5. Engaging employees is key to success
ďBe realistic. Employees will not change lifestyles
simply because you tell them to do so . Itâs hard to
get people to change their behaviour !
ďCompany DNA needs to change.
ďDesign a comprehensive program to apply to all
employees, from CEO to peon
ďProvide incentives
6. The ideal program
ďOffers several options since one method will not
work for the entire employee population
ďEncourages behavior change
ďProvides quantifiable, sustainable results
ďContributes to a quality work environment
ďHelps you to be an employer of choice
ďCreates Buzz !
7. Best practices
1. Obtain Executive Support.
2. Fund It Appropriately.
3. Staff It. Need a team of wellness champions
4. Design an Effective Marketing and
Communications Program. You need to
sell it !
8. Lead by example !
ďPapa, Donât Preach !
ďWill not work if executives do not participate
themselves. Does your CEO take the stairs ?
ďWhat do you do ?
9. Strategies for a successful program
ď# 1 : Health screening
ď# 2 : Health education. Information, & self help tools
ď# 3 : Organized activities
ď# 4 : Individual follow up & treatment
ď# 5 : Incentives and rewards
ď# 6 : Supportive workplace environment
10. Blended model â different strokes for
different folks !
ď1. Online
ď2. Real world
ď3. Coaching
13. Coaching
ďDirect support from a health coach. The employee
builds a relationship with the coach who
acts as an advocate.
ďOnline coaching is cost
effective !
14. Proving ROI
ď1. Programs should be customized. One size does
not fit all.
ď2. Phase in the programs according to your budget.
ď3. Something (done well) is better than nothing.
ď4. Do not be afraid of measurement. Collect
data !
ďVOI ( value on investment) vs ROI
( return on investment)
ďIt takes at least 18 months from the launch of a
Company Wellness program to see any impact.
15. Measuring ROI
ďParticipation: The easiest to measure.
ďSatisfaction: Another easily measured variable.
ďBehavior changes: Better lifestyle choices.
ďBiometrics: Blood pressure, BMI, body weight and
cholesterol are great targets
ďProductivity: Absenteeism measures
ďMedical claims: 25 to 40 percent of all medical
insurance claims are avoidable through prevention,
early detection and the reduction of modifiable
health risk factors.
16. Itâs all connected.
ďWellness is no longer a ânice to haveâ; itâs a business
strategy.
ďHealthy employees have higher levels of engagement
and productivity. Healthy companies outperform
their competition.
ďLow employee engagement and high work-related
stress leads to unhealthy employees.
ďUnhealthy employees
lead to higher costs and
lower productivity.
17. Chief Wellness Officer
ďPeople must live healthier lifestyles, but they need
help. They spend most of their time at work, so HR
has a great opportunity to help them. Whatâs more
âhumanâ than helping people get healthy?
ďWellness is a valuable growth strategy.
18. Why do so many employee wellness
programs fail ?
ďTypical employee wellness programs are too focused
on health and not enough on happiness. Need to
engage employees first, and then make them healthy.
ďA wellness program that isnât being used has zero
chance of success. The Carrot Is Tastier Than The
Stick
ďSmall changes in behavior lead
to huge results.
19. Doctors are part of the problem
ďThe Indian healthcare system has become sick.
Doctors are illness experts â and not healthcare
experts.
ďYour employees are the true experts on their health.
ďGive them the tools â
and learn from them !
ďMake it fun !
20. The Buck Stops Here !
ďTake ownership of the problem
ďPositive Deviance
ďChallenging task = Great opportunity !
