Screening For A Business

Why should my Business have a Wellness Screening?

Healthy employees are happy employees. According to the Center for Prevention and Health Services, an estimated 25 to 30 percent of companies’ medical costs per year are being spent on employees with excessive health risks.  Companies that have programs to help employees stop smoking and promote health screens have 28% decrease in sick leave, a 26% reduction in health care costs; and a 30% reduction in workers compensation and disability costs.

The short term investment in employee’s health can help your company save thousands in healthcare costs.
