Wellness First will co-ordinate and implement onsite employee wellness screening services for your employees. Why? Well simply put,
Healthy employees are more productive & Healthy medical aid members cost medical schemes less money!
There is a growing realization worldwide that healthy people need to be pro-active about remaining healthy, that early health risk identification is far better than ignoring risk, and that people that have chronic conditions need to be empowered to know how to live well with their condition.
Although disease prevention and wellness may well be personal issues, they have a significant impact on corporate companies and indeed on medical schemes.
A compelling business case can be made for many companies and medical schemes to promote and drive wellness as a strategic issue in the workplace. If employers ignore chronic illnesses in the workplace, (HIV/AIDS being a prominent problem) they risk significant downstream costs.
