Healthy, vital employees are generally happier employees. And happy employees create a pleasant atmosphere within the company and have an important and positive social, societal impact! Do you want to encourage your employees to adopt healthy habits during the Week of Vitality, but don’t immediately know how? Would you like to surprise them with a nice gift to boost happiness or a present that benefits their health? A sincere thank you or an unexpected gesture can have a bigger effect than you might think!
1. Personal growth and development
Employees who get the chance to grow and learn new things, and thus feel that their employer believes in them, are generally happy employees. Personal (professional) growth keeps employees motivated, feeling good in their job, and generally feeling good mentally and physically.
Make sure your employees have access to appropriate training programs and coaching paths, that they have a mentor to support them, … And clearly outline all these opportunities again during the Week of Vitality!
2. Get those legs moving
We all know that enough exercise is good for us. Enough movement helps us better handle stress, sleep better, and makes us mentally stronger. Encourage your employees in a pleasant way to include sufficient physical activity in their day.
Set up a walking club for lunch breaks, give a gym membership as a gift, encourage people playfully to take the stairs instead of the elevator, and to move regularly.
Maybe a yoga or pilates instructor can come to the company during lunch, … The possibilities are endless, just do it and keep moving! Seeing movement encourages movement, and together it’s definitely more fun, right?!
3. Healthy gift
A healthy mind in a healthy body. Our body needs the right nutrition to function well. Give your employees the chance to choose healthy food in the company restaurant. And what if you make it super easy for your employees to choose healthy options, even during their break, with an original and healthy gift?
With a JustBite snack box, for example, healthy and delicious breaks become as easy as can be. You surprise them with delicious snacks that are good for them, with the essential nutrients and without unnecessary sugar or additives. Their concentration will soar and their overall well-being too! You can also include a personal message, so your employees know you care about their well-being and vitality!
Work together with your employees on their vitality and let the Week of Vitality be the start of a wonderful journey toward a healthy mind and a healthy body for yourself and your employees!
