Assessing Six Pillars of Wellness
The WorkWell MA Award leverages the Healthiest Employers comprehensive online application to evaluate company performance spanning six key areas of health and wellbeing:
Culture and Leadership Commitment
Culture determines the success (or failure) of today’s well-being programs. Leadership plays a critical role in affecting an organization’s approach to programming.
Foundational
Components
The foundation of your health program will determine its overall, long-term strength. Shallow programs can be built quickly but have difficulty in producing lasting results.
Strategic
Planning
Achieving an innovative program begins by developing a mid- and long-term strategy. This work will be evidenced in the results of a healthier, more productive workforce.
Communications
and Marketing
With a communications and marketing plan tailored to your employees’ needs, you can turn lackluster perception and participation into ongoing momentum.
Programming
and Interventions
Impactful methods and engagement strategies are often ones that address the needs of the employee population by optimizing your programs, engagement strategies, and incentives to maximize effectiveness.
Reporting
and Analytics
When health initiatives are effectively managed and measured, research indicates that employees are more productive, spend less time away from the workforce, and spend less on healthcare.
