The Warrior Wellness Program

The Workplace Warriors Program is a tailored and comprehensive program of cultural change for a business. The program covers 3 key aspects of individual and workplace wellness:

  • Health: Physical activity & mobility, injury management & rehabilitation nutrition, smoking and alcohol use
  • Lifestyle: Stress, resilience, sleep, leisure, rest, recovery, emotional habits & control
  • Personal Management: Mindset, balance, effectiveness

Customisation: Depending on the nature of work being undertaken by employees, as well as measured needs, specific elements of the program may be prioritised, and delivery methods can be adjusted for maximum effect.

Thorough planning, flawless execution: Every aspect of the program is timed and delivered using proven principles in organisational change management. The program moves through a process of breaking down scepticism, raising voluntary interest and commitment, then the layering of education and practice until the teachings become assimilated into the daily routines of the employees. An overview of this process is as follows:

  • Management Consultation & Education: Key to the voluntary uptake of the wellness program is the role management play as the first, and most enthusiastic, champions.
  • Raise Awareness: This stage gently introduces employees to wellness concepts as well as hinting at the cultural change to come.
  • Needs Analysis: A series of surveys and empirical tests, including Fitness Age™, which will provide an accurate picture of the general state of wellness of the workforce. This will also influence the customising of the educational aspects of the program and help set the metrics by which the program will be evaluated. Employees will also be able to benefit from confidential personalised test results and feedback.
  • Implementation: A combination of seminars and webinars are used to deliver the main concepts regarding wellness and the techniques one needs to practice a lifestyle of wellness consistently. Following this, focus groups, workshops, online quizzes and activities, and workplace activities (such as fitness & stretching classes, cooking demonstrations, and pedometer competitions) reinforce these lessons and put the techniques to practice. Depending on the outcome of the needs analysis, this stage may also include physical changes being made to the work environment, such as healthy food choices, stand up work station, and staff gym facilities.
  • Evaluation: The effectiveness of the program, based on pre-agreed metrics, is measured at the end of the program using a combination of i) re-running of the surveys and tests performed at the needs analysis stage, and ii) financial metrics.

A medium term proposition: Like training an athlete into a champion, the shaping of an employee into a Workplace Warrior takes commitment, persistence, and practice. It is recommended that the program be allowed to roll out over a period of at least 6 months. This amount of time is necessary to give people the chance to absorb and put into practice all aspects of a lifestyle of wellness. It is also the minimum amount of time we recommend to deliver all program elements without undue disruption to the normal course of business.

Corporate health management is concerned with providing employees with a viable and effective health management program to help workers develop and lead healthy and balanced lifestyles to alleviate stress and to reduce health risk factors.

When employees are physically fit, their immune systems are stronger. They can fight off diseases and conditions. They are also stronger and less susceptible to physical injuries. Many businesses use corporate fitness programs to their advantage. Some companies even incorporate fitness training into their work hours. If you are considering implementing a fitness / wellness program within your organisation, here are four reasons why you should sign-up now.

Better Performance

Employees are able to perform better at work if their bodies are rejuvenated. Wellness programs provide them the opportunity to develop a life-long health habit involving exercise and diet and nutrition. For over-fatigued employees, lack of focus and enthusiasm affects their productivity.

Remember unhealthy workers are more susceptible to injuries and illness. They can also develop life-threatening complications that can inhibit them from doing their duties in the future.
