In this day and age, it is not uncommon for people to spend most of the day sitting at a desk or inside the office, therefore implementing health programs at the workplace has become an important aspect every company should look into. The idea of health, happiness, and productivity at work are related with the concept of healthy workplace, a company has the opportunity to foster the three ideas to the employee\u2019s benefit through corporate wellness programs.
\n<\/p>\n

Dr Laura Linnan, a professor of Public Health at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, USA, has developed a survey on corporate wellness and identifies the basic practices that define the wellness programs which are likely to improve a workplace’s overall health level. Phoenix Contact SEA has adopted the following workplace wellness practices in search of a healthier workforce:<\/p>\n

1. Practical and accessible programs
\nDevelop wellness initiatives by offering a variety of scheduled programs, such as sports day or healthy diet programs. In Phoenix Contact SEA, there is an activity called WE@PxC which is a weekly exercise program that allow individuals to gather in a small group and do sports based on the desired programs.<\/p>\n

2. Health-conscious work environment
\nA successful wellness program should create workplaces that encourage healthy behaviors on a daily basis. Phoenix Contact SEA generously offers three types of drinking water such as alkaline, purified and filtered water, with which employees can keep themselves properly hydrated; there are also fresh fruits available and low-sugar coffee machines. <\/p>\n

3. Wellness is integrated into the Company\u2019s structure
\nEmployees in Phoenix Contact SEA are eligible to claim for their annual health screening and dental expenses as the part of the benefits offered by the Company. Health and dental screening are conventional practices of the corporate wellness landscape. Besides the tracking of an individual\u2019s health index, it helps to educate employees about their own health and motivate them to set goals for making improvements. <\/p>\n

4. Positive Working Environment
\nWork environment is one of the significant factors that related to healthy workplace. It can be measured based on how employees feel about the environment in terms of relationships with co-workers and supervisors, organizational culture, room for personal development, etc. A positive work environment makes employees feel good about coming to work, and this not only provides the motivation to sustain employees throughout the day, but it is also good for the body since it generates hormone called Serotonin also known as \u201cThe Happy Hormone\u201d that leads to a happier self. In line with this, Phoenix Contact SEA emphasizes on togetherness and teamwork, various programs like teambuilding, CSR and birthday celebrations are some of the programs that in being organized to strengthen the bond.<\/p>\n

The purpose of a healthy workplace is not only to develop wellness programs that employees are interested in, but also enable employees to participate without having to choose between doing their jobs and living a healthy lifestyle. <\/p>\n
