Increase the loyalty and commitment of your staff through fitness.

When it comes to the success and profitability of your company, there is no one that has a bigger influence or impact on your business than the people who work for you. A company that is packed full of  happy, enthusiastic employees is sure to shine in the eyes of your customers, which in turn reflects positively on your business and your brand. On the other hand, employees who are unenthusiastic and are not loyal to your company are influential enough to send your customers into the arms of a competitor.

However, customers are not the only thing you have to worry about losing due to unhappy staff members. Because most businesses operate as a team, it can be devastating to think about losing one of your key players, such as your top salesperson or your head accountant. However, when an employee is not loyal to your business, they can be easily wooed by outside company’s looking to get close with your star team members.

So, how can your company ensure the loyalty, wellness and productivity of your employees? All three of these issues can be easily addressed through Walkingspree’s employer-sponsored corporate wellness program.

Many businesses are beginning to understand the many benefits that come with fostering a healthy work place environment. In addition the obvious employee health improvements that come with a corporate wellness program, companies can also save tons of money through other healthcare related expenses, while also increasing company loyalty and reducing turnover rates at the same time.

Here are just a few ways in which Walkingspree’s award winning corporate wellness program can help to increase loyalty among your employees and foster a healthy, happy work environment:

Positive Feelings Of Health

Many studies have shown that employees recognize distinct differences between organizations that have a culture of health and those that do not. For instance, employees who work at firms with corporate wellness programs feel as though they have a valued partner in addressing their health concerns, which in turn influences how they feel about their job.

In fact, according to a study by OptumHealth and GfK/Roper which surveyed 1,400 white and blue collar employees, more than eight in ten employees believe that workplace health and wellness programs show that an employer really cares about their employees. In addition, over 80% of those surveyed said that employer-sponsored health and wellness programs would encourage them to stay longer with their employer.

Increased Communication Between Employees

Many employees feel more comfortable and satisfied in their work environment when they have higher level employees and superiors working on a team with them. This gives them the feeling that they are able to speak their mind freely within the organization and that their ideas will be heard, another key factor in employee retention.

Because Walkingspree’s wellness program includes fitness goals and tasks for all staff members, including upper-level employees, it gives your staff a chance to communicate on a common ground, creating a more comfortable environment where staff members can have fun with the people they work with.
