SHWEEP Health/Wellness Program

Employee Engagement can involve many different factors and strategies. It has been said in the past that the number one driver of employee engagement is " ...the feeling by employees that the company ownership, executive and management levels really care about their employees as people and individuals. This includes their well being and interests, their goals and dreams, their workplace culture and environment, their families.....".

Health and Wellness Programs not only increase but help sustain high employee engagement and provide significant benefits to the organizations from improved employee health.

DBC Marketing, and our affiliated partners in the health and wellness field, are pleased to offer our "Strategic Health and Wellness Employee Engagement Program" (SHWEEP). Our program was designed to offer key services to improve employee health in order to have direct impact on employee performance, company costs and results. These services are provided through assessments and evaluations, customized educational seminars, health modules and employee interaction sessions.

In a recent article entitled, "Life: Recession Adrenaline" by Joann Richard, Toronto Sun guest columnist, she writes "Experts agree that unhealthy and unhappy recession-driven work schedules seriously impact the workplace and health of employees. According to stress expert Eli Bay, job satisfaction is down while blood pressure and other stress signs are off the charts. "They do not just feel overwhelmed, hard done by, abused, angry and dis-spirited, they very likely are also displaying a wide range of symptoms that are filling physicians' waiting rooms and putting smiles on the faces of pharmaceutical executives, such as hypertension, insomnia, anxiety, heartburn, arthritis, depression, headaches, IBS, fibromyalgia, muscular and neurological pain, ED...". Short term disability has increased dramatically, says Bay, founder of The Relaxation Response Institute. "Over the last year the pressure has been monumental in the auto industry in particular and the entire culture in general. Most companies remain blind to this phenomenon and write it off as the cost of doing business."

It is now estimated the economic impact of stress to Canadian industry, according to Health Canada, runs to the tune of $35 billion annually. Experts confirm that unhealthy or unhappy work environments seriously impact workplace efficiency and the organization’s bottom line. Consider this - it is the organization that ultimately assumes the cost of work stress from an economic perspective. Additional expenses resulting from workers compensation claims, absenteeism, reduced productivity due to health problems (presenteeism), overtime wages for colleagues, and both short and long term disability claims, all contribute to a declining bottom line. The mental, emotional, and physical impact that a stressful workplace environment has on the employee is also significant. While employee job satisfaction declines, prescription drugs, blood pressure and other stress induced signs are on the rise.

Business dynamics are constantly changing yet high employee performance and productivity will continue to be vital to organizational success. Restructuring and downsizing have left many employees doing more with less so it is paramount they are healthy, mentally focused on the tasks at hand and able to provide the effort needed to meet goals and overcome obstacles. In today’s economic climate new ideas, approaches and systems are required to control escalating health care costs, increase efficiencies and help employees maximize their performance. Those companies who develop new programs and structures that align with employee needs, harness their energy and engage staff in business goals will enjoy significant operational success and financial benefits.
