It's not to indirectly support those needs by making the employee happier as a person and thus more productive. Currently most of the support you get from a corporation is strictly limited to what you need to do your job. The corporation will rarely offer it's services for your private benefit. There are a few that do though. Of course, opening that door is tricky for a corporation as it may involve more than you bargained for. The bottom line is profit which is easily quantifiable. The increase offered by a happier employee not so much.
