‘GOOD HEALTH IS GOOD BUSINESS’
It’s important to manage the work balance of staff to ensure that pressure at work, which can be a motivating factor, does not turn into stress - especially when managing what might be a reduced workforce. A recent CIPD survey states that occupational stress poses a risk to most businesses and compensation payments for stress-related injuries are rising. It is therefore important to deal with excessive and long-term causes of stress.
A healthy workforce
Maintaining a healthy workforce in a cost effective way can be challenging. However research has showed that doing so can reduce absenteeism and lower the risk of stress – an essential factor in getting the most out of your staff in difficult times.
Chamber Members have have access to a Chamber Primary Health Plan which provides a simple and low cost solution that can help your business:
- Provide a valuable and affordable employee benefit
- Reduce absenteeism and related costs
- Lower the risk of stress and musculoskeletal litigation
- Recruit and retain staff
- Encourage proactive employee healthcare
- Improve staff morale, motivation and productivity
If you are a member of Kent Invicta Chamber then you have access to Chamber Healthcare Plans which you offer as an employment benefit in your company.
