Does HR care for the Healthcare of the employees?

Dear Colleagues,

Employee health & wellness related programs are common phenomenon in every other company. But the Fact is - these programs are mostly restricted to companies with a significant head-count. For others it doesn’t make economic sense to have such programs!! For another thing, most of these programs are more decorative rather than substantial. In the end, they become mere fancy lines in the company brochure.

How will HR react to such disturbing news?

1. “Employees of IT enabled service companies are at the highest risk of suffering from lifestyle diseases. They are constantly under stress, work against the clock and defy nature at every step. Only few companies have really addressed this problem”


2. “According to recent surveys, the average worker takes nine working days off sick a year. Stress-related conditions are the most commonly reported causes of ill-health and absenteeism”
