Top Employee Wellness Programs in Zimbabwe

With the rise in mental health awareness, many companies are now focusing more on physical wellness as well. There is not one-size fits all solution for what constitutes a healthy lifestyle and corporations should take their employees’ needs into account when developing programs that target both aspects of employee wellbeing.
The benefits or drawbacks will vary depending upon an individual’s personal preferences but there has been some evidence to suggest these types of initiatives can lead increased productivity among workers. Below is a list of some of the top wellness programs run by businesses in Zimbabwe:

Mental Health Counseling

Mental health counseling can make a world of difference for employees. A recent study found that workers who had received mental health services were less likely to die from heart disease or cancer than those without access, and also reported greater job satisfaction with their employers as well.

Physical Therapy

While physical pain is a common illness, so too are the programs to treat it. Over 30% of employees in Zimbabwe experience some form if back or neck pains and these companies offer physical therapy sessions where an online physiotherapist will be assigned as your personal trainer for you. Employees can take these at work with just enough time off given during business hours.

Yoga or Fitness Classes

There are a plethora of fitness and yoga organizations in Zimbabwe that advocate these ideas. As a result, fitness activities are an easy way to enhance one’s physical, mental, and social well-being. Fitness exercises aren’t always designed to achieve a certain goal. Working out may help you live a healthy lifestyle while reducing stress by utilizing guided meditation lessons

Chronic disease management

25% is a significant number when it comes to the workforce in Zimbabwe. These chronic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension affect more than 250 million people across this great country. So you’re going into battle together with these foes on board. It will be tough terrain for sure but there are some strategies up our sleeve that can help out – both at work outside (healthy diet).

Women health (PCOS | Fertility)

From the time they start working, Zimbabwe women are faced with a variety health challenges. In fact- considering that over 40% of Zimbabwe’s corporate workforce is female and this number will only increase in coming years – it’s important for employers to focus on their well being as much now more than ever before! Employers today offer several woman-centric programs such as PCOS & fertility medicine treatment which can help manage some disorders or facilitate pregnancy if you’re trying for one yourself .

Telemedicine

Telemedicine is a growing field in the Zimbabwe, especially as more and more people are turning to online alternatives for affordable healthcare services that have been traditionally offered only through hospitals or doctors offices with large staffs on site.

Tobacco Cessation

Many people are still smoking despite the health risks. Many employees in Zimbabwe could benefit from a tobacco cessation or de-addiction program, and employers continue seeing financial reasons for pursuing these types programs as well.

Weight Management

Employee Deepak Sethi

Our workers were traveling to the workplace in our office in Zimbabwe. This is all due to the work pressure that they were handling because of a certain monetary loss that we suffered in the last month. To help them keep motivated and rejuvenate them we conducted some employee Wellness workshops by Mantra Care in our office. It was a great plan and everything was executed as it was planned. I am happy to say that we are looking forward to more such collaborations with Mantra Care.

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