Investing in corporate wellbeing is an investment in the future of your business.

From expert care and follow-up of work-related injuries to a variety of cost-effective screening and prevention programs, St Joseph’s offers a full range of wellness interventions designed with your business needs in mind.

St Joseph’s provides proactive and forward-thinking wellness in the workplace solutions to organisations looking for a business-focussed approach. We build the service around you and your specific needs, providing you with a proactive and responsive service to ensure the effective management of employee health and wellness in your workplace.

One of the purposes of a Wellbeing Agenda is to significantly reduce the cost to an employer of employee ill health. The reduction of ill health related absenteeism and ‘presenteeism’ offers the opportunity to reduce costs within the business and improve employee health and wellbeing. Of even greater benefit is the gain which comes from having a healthy workforce which appreciates that they are employed by a caring employer who values their contribution now and in the future

There are undeniable benefits in developing a wellbeing strategy for your organisation.

You can:

• Increase employee engagement (commitment, loyalty, retention)
• Reduce employee turnover
• Reduce absenteeism
• Reduce presenteeism (estimated 1.5 times more expensive than absenteeism, through sub-performance, mistakes and accidents)
• Improve productivity (including alertness, concentration and judgement)
• Improve morale and employee up-skilling in areas not immediately obvious through their work functions
• Attract the best talent
• Reduce ancillary expenses (i.e. potential legal costs, claims, private healthcare costs, company insurance)
• Improve brand
• Demonstrate sustainable business practices

St Joseph’s Hospital will work with you to ensure your budget works harder by introducing preventative wellness interventions in the workplace.
