These programs look different at every company, with examples such as extensive health benefits or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.corporatewellnessmagazine.com\/article\/facebook-smart-vending-machines\">smart vending machines<\/a> with bike parts to encourage employees to cycle to work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Improve Employee Well-Being&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides providing a better workplace for your employees, improving employee well-being can positively impact your business, as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ox.ac.uk\/news\/2019-10-24-happy-workers-are-13-more-productive\">Oxford<\/a> study found that happy workers are 13% more effective. <a href=\"https:\/\/smallbusiness.chron.com\/effects-workplace-wellness-programs-absenteeism-44347.html\">Wellness programs can<\/a> decrease health care costs and help with absenteeism. Other <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/28747293\/\">studies have shown<\/a> mental health interventions can improve well-being and productivity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees can also help market your company, as <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.smarp.com\/your-employees-are-your-most-valuable-marketing-asset\">consumers tend to trust employees<\/a> more than businesses themselves. Satisfied employees can also improve your brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, unhappy workers can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/246036\">expensive<\/a> and lead to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/job-factors-that-contribute-to-employee-burnout-3144512\">employee burnout<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Implement an Employee Wellness Initiative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best place to start with employee wellness is at the source. You could craft a <a href=\"https:\/\/snacknation.com\/blog\/employee-wellness-survey\/\">wellness survey<\/a> or ask for suggestions on how to improve the workplace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes there\u2019s a mismatch between what management believes employees want and what they <em>actually<\/em> want. According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2019\/08\/survey-what-employees-want-most-from-their-workspaces\">Future Workplace<\/a> survey, the top two wellness perks were air quality and comfortable light.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/O6xZ8b81P_TS_RUzqw_oLZwGcdMJUGUPUShXNwWeOyul4f2WAaeimtBhHtgKWJZ86-vJ9HkZqOE7223uHMzuAq0X4MbA0OPPNC6-ZoQtwjryjJB67W_nI_UwAkTggIWlgrCW10N9\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you undertake a new initiative, find out what your employees want first.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, decide what area or areas you want to focus on. <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/content\/dam\/insights\/us\/articles\/6935_2021-HC-Trends\/di_human-capital-trends.pdf\">Deloitte\u2019s 2021 Global Human Capital Trends<\/a> report suggests looking at well-being at various levels you can implement, from individual to team to organizational.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/M3J0443QROIkBXDG0MitIec-sAu-QVXn1aFNnNrDgNSgkMk4L7DMvQwgxCTbhPDHpK5N7lXtCN8FxANu8WtenujYW_YUzj89lw7nAT4ZYz6bEkMF6KMTE2bOm98QDjXKlpubH8aH\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Each company\u2019s wellness program will and should look different depending on your business\u2019s values and culture. Ideas can range from big to small, for example:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Annual flu shots&nbsp;<\/li><li>Increased maternal and paternal leave&nbsp;<\/li><li>Gym membership compensation&nbsp;<\/li><li>Paid time for volunteering<\/li><li>Restrict business email after work hours or on weekends&nbsp;<\/li><li>Offer an Employee Assistance Program&nbsp;<\/li><li>Encourage lunch breaks away from computers&nbsp;<\/li><li>More plants in the office&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Employee Wellness for Small Business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Large companies can afford extensive wellness programs and perks for their employees. But how can small businesses keep up when resources tend to be stretched thin?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Small businesses have an advantage that larger companies don\u2019t have when it comes to wellness. Since small businesses work so closely with employees, they can intimately understand what their employees need and personalize their offerings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shrm.org\/ResourcesAndTools\/hr-topics\/benefits\/Documents\/wellness-survey-v3.pdf\">National Small Business Associations<\/a>\u2019 workplace wellness report, companies with fewer employees had greater confidence they could manage employee health and wellness as opposed to companies with more employees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/tRTRmb8urd9vwWi_ngVxZOGxS5KakTbTeTZEDQ-Q0m8-35zY1TdDI1JlThv8WqXjKZuE9F537cakey0kqddx1ddi7FmjRSlpPX2hmOxYdvZRDrwLyj34CBTgSLXI2M6WHIE7jSvv\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Foster a culture of employee wellness in your company. Pay attention to your employees and what they need to do their job better and be happy at work. You can create better bonds with your employees, and they\u2019ll feel valued and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/blog\/19-ways-to-celebrate-employee-appreciation-day\/\">appreciated<\/a> by their company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a challenging 2020, it\u2019s no wonder employee well-being is set to be a trend in 2021 and become a baseline for the future. Not only does it improve employee morale, but it also leads to happier employees who perform better at work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To instill a wellness program or policy, you should start with asking your employees what they want. Even as a small business, you can find ways to prioritize a culture of employee well-being.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your choices will depend on your company, but you can create meaningful changes for your employees.<br>Do you want to lower employee stress with a better hosting platform?
