Talent Tip #4: Incentivize lifestyle changes

Brought to you by Ceridian

Changing employees' lifestyles can help reduce benefits costs – in fact, 75 percent of employers' health care costs and productivity losses are related to employee lifestyle choices (Source: CDC, 2008). Consider offering worksite wellness programs and create a culture of good health at your company. Companies that implement health and wellness programs average 28 percent less sick leave, 26 percent less direct health care costs, and a 30 percent reduction in workers' compensation and disability costs.
