DISEASE MANAGEMENT

It’s important to address the immediate health problems of your employees through early detection of medical conditions with:

Show concern for your employees’ health by assuring them that it’s okay to inform you or their supervisor if they have a medical condition, so that the company can better support them in managing their illness

Encourage your employees to let you know if they have any chronic diseases like diabetes or heart disease. And should they require any medication or treatment, it helps to assure them that their livelihood won’t be affected

Include health screenings and health coaching as part of your company’s workplace safety and health management system

LIFESTYLE MANAGEMENT

It’s all about staying fit and well by embracing a healthy lifestyle. Here are some examples of lifestyle management programmes where employees are encouraged to:

Show concern for your employees’ health by keeping a well-stocked pantry of nutritious food.

Include lifestyle programmes and regular health checks as a key part of regular employee engagement practices.

Adjust working schedules and premises to create a conducive workplace health for your employees so that they don’t suffer from mental stress or burnout.
