Make the Challenges of Workplace Health Successfully for your organization

Public group · 2 members

Good and small entrepreneurs need to do more for the health of their employees and the welfare of their companies. Why? The world health organization has identified physical inactiveness as the fourth highest cause of death in the world.

This might explain why more and more human resource departments become interested in "health challenges" sponsored by the employer. Health challenges usually involve healthy involvement between employees, both individually or as part of the team. They are a fun and effective way to increase physical activity at work while helping employees manage their weight and at the same time encourage a sense of friendship in the company.

Fortunately, workplace fitness challenge have been far since the creation of the challenges of physical fitness (how many of us remember being forced to do sit-ups and sprint in sports class?).

Things that must be considered by the company to carry out health challenges

1. Involve all their workers and families.

Encourage top management to participate and adjust important (and fun!) For all team members to be involved and involved.

2. Combining team-based challenges that build friendship and morals.

Making a team and competing with colleagues or other departments gives a sense of competition and is held accountable by teammates to provide extra motivation for the participants.

3. Allows employees to do and track various physical activities.

Instead of expecting everyone to cycle or run, for example, allowing participants to include hiking, yoga, dancing, swimming, and other fitness-enhancing activities. Because most large organizations have employees with a variety of interests and abilities, this will involve a broader percentage of the company's population and will reduce the number of employees who do not participate because they do not enjoy or cannot carry out certain activities.

4. Gift Offer

Offering creative incentives and rewards that also rotate around health and well-being so that overall health messages do not disappear in rewards. Make sure the award is meaningful and desirable, that is, not a bottle of water or other t-shirts with your company's logo.

5. Consistent promotion

Make sure the promotion is consistent before and during the event to involve as many employees as possible. Use an email explosion, promotional poster, registration event on the spot, etc.

6. Blessed

Make fun and easy for employees to be involved and stay involved. For example, give them an online platform to record activities, record the number of steps taken, track weight loss, etc.

7. Show Commitment

Show a commitment to long-term health by creating a health calendar and providing opportunities for employees to participate in challenges sponsored by the company throughout the year.
