Health wellness program creation is having a major impact upon employee health, absenteeism, and conserving employer cash flow. According to Cornell University Institute for Health and Productivity Studies a company investment of $100-$150 per employee each year to participate in an employee wellness program can save companies $300 to $450 per employee per year.

The Wellness Councils of America reported a $24 return for every $1 spent on a company wellness program for small businesses. A survey conducted by The Art of Health Promotion stated that companies that implemented employee health and wellness programs realized a 30% reduction in medical and absenteeism costs in less than 4 years.

Health wellness programs can not only yield high dividends for employers, but can also be fun and motivating for employees who choose to participate. Activity management programs have been shown to reduce the weight of employees who engage in the program and reduce health care costs for corporations. Health screenings can help employees gain awareness of their current health status for blood pressure, weight, cholesterol, and other important health statistics.
