Corporate Wellness Services in Jamestown, Fargo, and Mandan, ND

Corporate wellness services are programs that are specifically designed for employers and employees to not only promote health at work but also to improve the working environment and comradery in the environment as well. It has shown that corporations that have wellness services and programs at their company have higher employee satisfaction at work, improved team dynamics, substantial growth of the company, and a competitive edge not only in the employment sector but also in their customer base. Because of this corporate wellness is not just a trend, but something that is here to stay long-term. The strategic approach that is taken to the corporation and its employees means that no two companies are going to have the exact same programs, but they may have some that overlap in what the basis of the program is for. This holistic approach to employees means that it cannot only improve the working life, but also their lives outside of work as well, meaning they will also have higher satisfaction levels at work which translates to improved attendance levels, and higher quality work being done.

Some examples of corporate wellness services are mental health supports for stress management inside or outside of the working environment, physical health services such as onside exercise facilities or incentives for employees like discounted or fully covered gym memberships, or once-weekly exercise classes that happen in the office that employees are still paid their hourly wage to take a part of. There are also wellness services for corporations such as health screenings that are done yearly for all employees, and educational services about these potential health complications so employees can know how to spot indications of health problems or mental health problems in themselves or co-workers to be able to have a supportive environment.

For companies looking to implement corporate wellness into their working environment there are many ways to start but reaching out to a medical professional with experience in this, like the doctors at Medallus Urgent Care, can be the best first step. This is because you will have a physician that can go over the best options for the working environment, and small steps to start out with to see what works for your employees before implementing full programs. This can include having the physician recommend starting out with a mental health recognition program for staff that elect to take part in it or even starting out with creating a company sports team like baseball or softball, as these can help foster a healthy work environment and you can gauge the interest of the employees. By discussing the current work environment, what your employees do daily, and the activity level and stress level associated with the work, a physician will be able to advise on these small things that can make big changes in employee satisfaction, comradery levels, and employee long-term health.

As mentioned previously, corporations or companies that have corporate wellness programs have been shown to not only have high employee satisfaction, but also improvements in team dynamics, higher employee engagement, reduced number of sick days, and up to a 50% increase in revenue earned by each employee. Because of this, it also creates a much healthier work-life balance for employees, leading to employees being more likely to stay with the company as long as they possibly can. When looking at it in this regard, this means that corporations that participate in corporate wellness are more likely to see an increase in revenue, even when considering the costs associated with having these programs.

The key elements that create an amazing corporate wellness program are making adaptions to the work environment, like standing desks for those who would like them, to changing out the lighting in the environment where possible so employees are not dealing with UV lights all day long. In companies, where applicable, having flexible working options such as the ability to work 4-8 days a month from home rather than in the office, and making sure that the corporation stands behind the values it presents to customers also being shared toward their employees. Making sure there is also the ability to work up in the company while celebrating all employee’s successes and wins when they happen. Also having incentives for mental health, physical wellness, and community involvement have proven to be important when creating corporate wellness plans.
