What is an Employee Wellness Program?

Employee wellness programs are a great way for employers to promote healthy lifestyles among their employees! The survey shows that over 60% of workers in Bangladesh suffer from work stress or have chronic health conditions. This costs 35%, on average, per employee which can lead up majorly Productivity Losses if left unchecked. But not with some help from these initiatives: Employee Wellness Programmes keep your staff happy and healthier so you don’t lose any more time trying figure out what’s wrong when there isn’t anything at first glance.

Top Employee Wellness Programs in Bangladesh

The Bangladesh and other countries have been focusing on employee wellness programs because it is important to be mentally healthy as well as physically. Mental health in particular has received a lot of attention but there’s also an emphasis now for corporates’ physical well being too.
A recent trend among businesses around the world includes signing up with different types or plans which include chronic disease management/prevention counseling dietary tips such smoking cessation classes etc. Below is a list of some of the top wellness programs run by businesses in Bangladesh:

Mental Health Counseling

An employee in the Bangladesh is experiencing chronic stress every second of their working day. Therapy or counseling can help reduce this, which improves well-being by reducing anxiety and increasing mindfulness as well! There are multiple EAP programs to get employees mental health issues taken care off at work.

Physical Therapy

At some point or another, we have all experienced physical pain. In the Bangladesh around 30% of employees report experiencing some form this as back pain and neck ache (more common). Companies offer Physio programs where they provide you with an online personal physiotherapist to help ease your symptoms when needed via office breaks or at home sessions through video teleconferencing software like Skype which also provides therapy exercises for those who can’t leave their house.

Yoga or Fitness Classes

Many businesses in the Bangladesh want to promote fitness or yoga at work. As a result, fitness sessions are a versatile instrument that may be used to improve physical, mental, and social well-being. Fitness classes do not always have to be limited to physical exercise. Guided meditation sessions are excellent methods for maintaining well-being and reducing stress.

Chronic disease management

The Bangladesh population has been seeing an increase rate due primarily from obesity related ailments like heart attacks high cholesterol levels strokes etc., which cost our economy billions per year on healthcare expenses alone. This is where companies come into play: they want their workers’ productivity back so they’re setting up prevention efforts starting early-on through education about how diet & exercise affects overall wellness.

Women health (PCOS | Fertility)

Women’s health is a key issue for employers. The Bangladesh corporate workforce consists of 40% female employees, and many companies are focusing on this group to create more women-centric programs such as PCOS & fertility treatment that promote healthier lifestyles in general.

Telemedicine

Telemedicine is a rapidly growing industry in the Bangladesh, and it’s especially popular among small businesses. With costs cut down to more affordable visits online-telemedics offer benefits that range from large corporations all the way down to your startup company.

Tobacco Cessation

With nearly one out of four employees succumbing to the harmful effects that are linked with tobacco use, it’s no surprise why employers in Bangladesh continue their pursuit for cessation programs. The adverse impact on company profitability and productivity is surely not worth your time or energy if you want a healthy workplace.

Weight Management

Weight Management Programs camps offer personalized plans designed around your employees needs – whether this concerns exercise routines nutrition advice based on food preferences/ restrictions brought about from illness.

Frequently Asked Question's

EAP or Employee Assistance Program is a scheme offered by companies in Bangladesh to help workers with personal problems, such as personal or work-related issues. EAP programs typically offer employees free access to assessments and counseling.

EAPs in Bangladesh are focused primarily on mental health and stress issues, which are solved using counseling. Employee wellness programs, however, take a broader approach and address mental health, physical health as well as lifestyle issues. 

Several companies in Bangladesh have a dedicated member in the HR team who looks after employee assessment and support. Following steps are following in designing a wellness program:

  1. Step 1: Conduct Assessments.
  2. Step 2: Get Management Support. 
  3. Step 3: Build a Wellness Committee.
  4. Step 4: Promote Goals and Objectives.
  5. Step 5: Establish a Budget. 
  6. Step 6: Select Wellness Program Incentives or Rewards. …
  7. Step 8: Communicate the Wellness Plan.

Based on a poll with different companies in Bangladesh, large companies (>1000 employees) spend over $200 per employee per month on employee wellness and health benefits. Smaller companies in Bangladesh, on the other hand, spend around $60 per employee per month. 

The wellbeing of your employees ultimately affects your workplace and business performance. Following are some of the costs that a typical large company in Bangladesh may incur due to wellness and health issues (based on Mercer data):

High Turnover: Employee attrition costs 90%–200% of a departing employee’s salary

High Absenteeism: 78% of employees miss work due to mental health concerns

Lost Productivity: Productivity losses linked to absenteeism & turnover cost ~$2,000 per employee.

Comparing this $2,000 loss with the $200 wellness spend per employee, the ROI seems to be great for employers in Bangladesh.
