It’s no secret that the success of any company heavily depends on the productivity and work performance of their employees.  What many businesses may not be aware of though, is that research demonstrates that employee Wellness Programs not only help with employee productivity, but can help reduce healthcare costs as well. 

Wellness programs are proven to be beneficial for both the employee, as well as the company sponsoring the program. The implementation of a Wellness Program can decrease employee stress, sick time & absences and increase workplace morale. 

Many small businesses tend to shy away from wellness programs, believing it’s a luxury they can not afford. The truth is, a wellness program can be as simple or elaborate as a company wants to make it.  It can be as simple as an online tool, bringing in speakers to talk about smoking cessation or nutrition or offering a fitness program. 

Human Resources inc recently brought in Underground Fitness to develop an on-site group fitness class. Many HRi employees have benefited from the program by decreasing our body fat, increasing our energy levels and most of all forming closer bonds with our co-workers. 

Jon Bergeron of Underground Fitness offers many different programs that can be customized for each business. Underground Fitness provides all equipment and materials to conduct the classes, in any setting. Programs are custom designed to accommodate anyone- at any fitness level. 

For further information about the programs available at Underground Fitness- please contact Jon by email at jonb@undergroundfitness.us  or by phone at 407 463 6940, or go to their website at www.undergroundfitness.us. 

Start the New Year out right by encouraging healthy behavior for your employees. It’s a great way to demonstrate your concern for their well being, boost their morale and help reduce health care costs!
