Why Choose True Fitcorp
Lack of Participation is the single biggest reason for failing Wellness Programs
Participation
Corporate Wellness was founded upon the desire to make a positive change to people’s lives by educating them on stress, disease management and the benefits of leading a healthy lifestyle.
The challenge is to get as many employees to participate in these initiatives for as long as possible and to do so without impacting upon the day to day operations of the business. Hence participation is widely regarded as one of the most important metrics in determining the success or failure of a corporate wellness program.
Our programs engage with employees at the point of introduction and then remain in contact on a weekly/monthly basis in order to maintain their interaction at a level that they are comfortable with, and further to promote the facilities and services at their disposal. We initiate the journey to wellness and join the participant along the way.
Wellness programs can easily be perceived as intrusive and obligatory
Understanding the Employee
We avoid any form of forced participation as well as any sense of intrusion upon the employee’s privacy by creating relationships at our point of introduction and identifying their areas of risk, before responding with guidelines and programs that are as unique as they are.
We also make it a priority to encourage group participation where possible as this typically allows for the less inclined user to consider joining the program within a group of familiar people.
All interactions are made to be as fun and exciting as possible, failing which they could become clinical and uninspiring.
Most organisations only use rates of absenteeism as their metric for success
Deciphering Data & Measuring Success
Deciphering data is a critical component of understanding the organisations general risk profile in terms of managing disease, stress and the general propensity toward a healthy lifestyle.
We absorb data and create these statistics for Wellness Managers and HR Managers as required, and then propose solutions at a macro level in the form of strategies and focus areas in order to guide the organisation’s communication and marketing programs in this regard. (Obesity, Tobacco related illness, etc.)
Measuring the success of your Corporate Wellness program could be as simple as comparing participation statistics against the industry average of 30%.
Other organisations prefer to gauge positive movements in rates of absenteeism as their metric, and whilst an improvement in this statistic reveals an immediate financial opportunity to the Employer, the real opportunity lies within the potential to become an employer of choice who subsequently attracts the best talent available in the marketplace.
The Future of Care is True
The potential that a healthy workforce has to offer the organisations of the future is limitless. Whilst there are many parts of the world that have progressed significantly in this field, there is probably an equal number that has yet to realise the potential that Corporate Wellness has to offer their bottom lines.
There is simply no doubt as to the viability of a credible, well managed and well designed corporate wellness program. Irrespective of whether these conversations take place with Financial Managers or Human Capital Managers, the outcome will remain the same – and that outcome is a unanimous thumbs up.
The only question now is whether your service provider is as intelligent, diverse, resourced and as committed to the True wellbeing of your organisation and it’s workforce, as we are.
True FitCorp – it’s time to step up.
