Health and Wellbeing
- Improving Value
- Reducing Cost
A strategy that will help employers produce a healthier, more productive workforce will lower your employment costs, health benefit costs and ensure you get better value from your spend on health benefits.
A health and wellbeing strategy involves ‘layering’ the benefits that you provide to your employees to maximise their health and productivity, and to minimise your insurance costs and absence rates. There are three important layers to this strategy:
- Health and wellbeing education;
- Preventative measures that provide a ‘safety net’ against illness and absence;
- Insurance products that protect your employees if the worst comes to the worst.
However to reap these rewards, having the benefits in place is not enough to help manage your costs and maximise productivity. As an employer you must make sure that your education is expertly communicated, that your safety net is effective and that your insurance products are kept under constant review.
How can we help?
- Education: We will devise for you an engaging communication strategy which focuses on ensuring that your employees not only understand how all of their health benefits operate, but also how their diet, exercise regime and lifestyle can impact on their health;
- Prevention: Preventative health measures such as screening and occupational health coupled with effective absence management reporting, will allow you to target employees before they become seriously ill. We will help you source these benefits and provide you with proactive reporting on your employees’ absence, including the length and reasons of absence, together with analysing which parts of your business are most affected. This will enable you to ensure absent employees take advantage of those health benefits which can get them back to work more quickly.
- Insurance: Our Health and Wellbeing Consultants will structure, broker and keep under continual review your insurance benefits, ensuring the benefit strikes the right balance between the employees’ needs and the needs of the business.
