Abstract

A hectic lifestyle that causes stress plays a major role in responding to all the diseases whether it is diabetes, unhappiness or brain stroke. If an employer is faced with this decision regarding funding of the workplace wellness program at a juncture where the program has not yet proven its value in reduced absenteeism and increased productivity, it is quite possible the employer will not continue to provide such a program. The offer of wellness programs usually leads to more enthusiastic employees at work. Good wellness programs will help companies to hire, as well as retain, the best employees. While the study aimed to gather insights from a diverse sample of corporations across a variety of sectors in two different countries, recruitment of corporations into the study was primarily based on in-country partners’ network with corporations and should be taken into consideration in regards to generalizability of the results.
