Wellness management programme

Workplace wellness is about actively valuing and supporting the wellbeing of your workforce. Non-smoking, fit people who eat healthily and feel good, are more likely to perform well in their jobs.

You can proactively look after your people and enhance productivity in many ways, but some approaches will be more appropriate for your workforce than others. That’s why we work with you to design an effective wellness programme that supports the health and wellbeing of your employees and meets your strategic objectives.

Here are some of the services we can provide:

Health checks

Health check assessments provide high level information on the general health status of an organisation’s employees.

Employees can be alerted to lifestyle factors that might be negatively impacting on their health. A health-check assessment also provides a roadmap for employers to deliver health interventions to targeted individuals — with the goal of improved employee and business performance.

We can arrange basic wellness checks, medical checks, executive medicals, and pre-employment checks.

Flu vaccinations

The flu can have a financial impact on businesses when workers become ill. With a well-timed flu vaccination programme, you can minimise the potential for disruption.

We can simplify and streamline workplace flu vaccination programmes, using a web-based booking and administration system.

Exercise and fitness

We live in a push-button, remote control world. Modern living is increasingly reducing the opportunity to exercise rigorously on a day-to-day basis. Combined with poor nutrition, low physical activity levels are often cited as one of the major causes of increasing body weight and declining health in our society.

Smoking cessation programme

In 2006/07 one in five adults (19.9%) were current smokers (including those who smoked less than daily). Maori adults had one and a half (for men) to two times (for women) the rate of smoking compared to men and women in the total population.

We can provide services to help your employees kick the habit by running a smoking cessation programme. 

Nutrition and weight management

Evidence is emerging to suggest that the prevalence of overweight and obese people is increasing worldwide at an alarming rate. New Zealand is no exception.

Developing good eating habits and maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent the onset of lifestyle diseases and increase energy levels in the workplace.

We have a range of nutrition and weight management resources to help get your employees on the right track.

Occupational health

We can help you to meet your occupational health and safety obligations. For more information, visit the ‘Care Advantage’ section of this website.

Seminars and workshops

Empower your employees to take better care of themselves and your business will feel the benefits. Feedback tells us that the seminars and workshops we offer are thought-provoking as well as educational.

Choose from a wide range of health and wellness-related topics that can be presented onsite to your employees.

Some of the topics include: nutrition and fitness, stress, work/life balance, fitness, ergonomics, smoking cessation, ageing workforce, shiftwork, outdoor workers, personal development.
