St Kilda, Australia (prHWY.com) May 18, 2012 - Workplace wellness programs benefit both employer and employee. For many companies, workplace wellness programs have become a valuable asset by lowering costs in absenteeism and work related injuries as well as disability management costs and worker's compensation claims.

Studies have found that employee absenteeism is directly related to 3 primary factors; Depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders.

These factors can be effectively combated by employing workplace wellness programs. Healthy organizations enjoy increased employee morale and an improved ability to attract and retain key people. Additionally, employees are more alert and productive. Employees enjoy their share of benefits from workplace wellness programs too.

A healthy lifestyle affects every part of a person's life, including their work environment. Workplace wellness programs result in fewer injuries, less human error and a work environment that is more harmonious and relaxed. The Global Corporate Challenge (GCC) is the world's largest and most exciting workplace health and wellness program with independently proven results.
