Why are Workplace Wellness Programs Catching On?​

 

Stress is a rising epidemic. In 1997, Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard Medical School, head of the National Institute for Health (NIH) testified before Congress saying that "stress is responsible for 75-90 percent of visits to doctors." Stress is a contributing factor in a host of expensive and preventable illnesses, such as heart disease, depression, anxiety, high-blood pressure, and alcoholism, to name just a few.

​

"The Canadian Institute of Stress found that stress control programs alone can result in an 18% reduction of absences, 32% reduction in grievances, 52% reduction in disability time, 7% improvement in productivity , and 13% improvement in service quality... Essentially, for every dollar spent on wellness promotion, a company can expect a return of between 1.15 to 8.00, with the most popular return coming in at about $3.00."
