CORPORATE WELLNESS PROGRAM BY SHOALS YOGA
Recent national work related surveys have found 80% of workers feel stress on the job and half of those report their job as very or extremely stressful. One-quarter of all workers views their jobs as the number one stress in their lives.
A rocky economy and soaring medical costs have actually forced many companies to reduce the number of benefits they offer. Yoga sessions included as part of a corporate wellness program have proven to be a relatively inexpensive perk. Many businesses are able to bolster employees’ health and also make them feel like the company cares about them. A corporate sponsored yoga program will help bottom line profits as a special money saving gift for the benefit of both its employees and stakeholders’
FACT: For every $1 invested in workplace wellness, a company can expect $3 in cost savings or benefits.
