Workplace Wellness: 5 Reasons Why Excellent Programs Fail

June 20

healthy workplaceWhat sets a program up for failure?  Unsuccessful Workplace Wellness Programs have some common characteristics, that those who are initiating wellness in their own organization, can learn from.

 

 

Excellent Programs often fail because:

  • They don’t have true commitment from all levels of management
  • They are not accepted by the employees that they are designed to serve
  • They don’t get the resources they need to continue
  • They don’t address the most important health and wellness issues
  • They may not be effective interventions to address the specific issues

 

To ensure that wellness programming efforts are successful:

  • Learn as much as you can about the situation: environment, the people and their issues
  • Find out about their health needs: facts, opinions and resources
  • Gain acceptance: from employees, unions and from all levels of management
