“Fit Employees Means Healthy Profits”
Keeping your work force active in a regular fitness program is one of the healthiest executive decisions you can make. The main benefits to employees and employers include: Increased Productivity, Improved Morale, Reduced Stress, and Decreased Health Care Costs; and Reduced Employee Turn Over – all of which lead to dramatic, positive return on your investment in the company’s fitness program.
Increased Productivity Active employees are more productive and enthusiastic in their jobs. Studies have proven that they have more energy, make better decisions, and use their time better.
–Purdue University tested 80 people over a nine month period and found that the exercisers improved their decision making results by 70% and NASA discovered that their regular exercisers had improved stamina, increased overall work performance and enhanced concentration.
Improve Morale, Reduce Stress & Decrease Health Care Costs Healthier employees have proven to make happier employees. Regular exercise in your work force will automatically add a social atmosphere and improve overall morale. Energized employees promote positivism, show less absenteeism and are proven to have reduced anxiety, tension and stress. –Pepsi-Co found its corporate fitness program had a 300% return on investment, due mainly to decrease in health care costs.
