Workplace wellness promotes a sense of well-being and happiness in the workplace.
Nowadays reasons to stay with an employer include not only career growth and good compensation, but also office culture; Wellness programs play a crucial role in defining this culture. Employees tend to be more content when the organization provides a fun workplace, a healthy work environment and more opportunities to be recognized. Wellness Programs promote and encourage a happy workplace, a healthy lifestyle, charity work, and much more. This in turn boosts employee morale, reduces absenteeism and employee turnover.
