According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 75% of employers' health care costs and productivity losses are related to employee lifestyle choices. Poor lifestyle choices translate into higher rates of absenteeism, lower productivity, and higher health care expense. The cost of employer-sponsored benefits exceeds that of almost all other company expenditures, remaining the top concern for employers today. Investing in the health of the employees can also be an investment in the company’s bottom line, especially when the employees are top-performers.
For travel planners, a key element, to the success of their program, is the opportunities to networking outside of the actual meetings sessions. Wellness options available for meeting participants range from classes and workshops on nutrition, fitness and life-balance Returning to the growing interest in meeting venues with spa facilities is due in part with the recognition that a better balanced, well-rested employee with a strong commitment to health will perform better at work. Also, consider that a meeting held where spa services are available creates a memorable event for attendees which can in turn increase the ability to retain information presented during the meeting. As in ancient times, a spa experience is conducive to social interaction and can be a rewarding group event. Regardless of whether a spa component is optional, required, individual or a group event, it is a sought after post-meeting activity.
In 2009, the US spent $2 trillion on healthcare; 95% focused on the treatment of disease and health conditions and only 5% on wellness and prevention. Poor nutrition, high levels of stress, sleep conditions and a sedentary lifestyle has negatively impacted health of our nation.
