Celebrate National Employee Benefits Day — April 6, 2010!

As an HR professional / plan sponsor, your dedication to providing quality benefits and the important role you play in your colleagues’ well-being will be recognized on National Employee Benefits Day!

This year, National Employee Benefits Day will focus on Workplace Wellness. So, on April 6th, spend some time looking at your benefit plans and other corporate offerings to determine whether they support wellness and pro-active illness prevention. Also, reach out to your plan participants to promote living a healthier lifestyle — both at work and at home.

The Top 5 reasons your company needs programs that support employee health and wellness:
1. Reduced Absenteeism – improved lifestyle through education
2. Work Place Morale – healthy employees are happier
3. Increased Responsibility – interested employer means interested employee
4. Increased Productivity – being healthy increases concentration, energy levels and output
5. Reduced Overall Costs – both quantifiable and intangible results through reduced sick leave and absenteeism
