Correct me if I'm wrong, but takes a very narrow view when it says ROI on Health Care costs. I think they overlooked the possibility that healthier employees (and employee's family) could help provide an ROI in terms of productivity?
- b2themax 13y agoExactly. Some things aren't just about money.
- colechristensen 13y agoROI based on employee productivity is very much about money. But you're right, a great employer does care about more things than just money-above-all.
- aaron695 13y agoThey mention productivity. It's pretty hard to measure rate of work output and wellness programs effectiveness on this so they are kinda doing it by proxy. The point they are making is people are consistently lying about this issue. Wellness programs don't pay for them selves according to their figures even though many organisations claim they do. And if we are going to go forward on this issue we need to start talking about the real facts. Such as they suggest targeting people who have serious issues rather than everyone. Make real change not token change for the sake of it.
