Corporate Wellness
If you or your company is seeking to implement a corporate wellness program, consider the following staggering information about our nation’s wellness & healthcare costs:
- According to the National Health Care Statistics, the typical American diet is responsible for most of the preventable diseases, including 91% of diabetes, 82% of heart disease, and 71% of colon cancer.
- 65% of the US population are overweight, and over 33% are literally considered CLINICALLY OBESE, which constitutes over 90 million Americans. This is a 7-10% increase in less than 5 years.
- Only 15% of adults engage in regular vigorous physical activity (with or without personal trainers or personal wellness coaches), and 60% report getting essentially no exercise whatsoever from a regular leisure activity.
- Chronic illness, including heart disease, diabetes and obesity, accounts for 75% OF HEALTH COSTS, according to the American Public Health Association.
- THE HEALTHCARE PROBLEM CLEARLY ISN’T GOING AWAY. According to the Industrial Physical Capability Services, Inc, new hire data demonstrates that applicants under the age of 40 actually have a greater prevalence for obesity than those over the age of 40.
TRANSFORMATION’S CORPORATE WELLNESS PROGRAM
Transformation’s Corporate Wellness Program addresses skyrocketing corporate employee healthcare costs of many types and forms, based on reported healthcare statistics across the Healthcare and Wellness Industry:
- According to the Wall Street Journal, Healthcare costs per capita will reach $7,500 this year, more than double the $3,470 per person in 1993.
- In 2005, the total cost of providing U.S. employees health benefits exceeded profits for the Fortune 500 corporations.
- The annual change in health insurance premiums continue to grow at an incredible 9-13%.
- The Centers for Disease Control reports that 75% of health care spending pays for illnesses that are preventable.
- Data from 2005 shows that the obese worker costs a company an extra $1,809 each year in healthcare costs, absenteeism and presenteeism. This does not include indirect costs involved. In a related article, the front page of the USA Today reported an expected trend between obesity and disability claims.
- The U.S. spent 15.3% of our entire GDP on health care in 2004 (note – that number is not expected to have dropped).
And these figures don’t include the IMMENSE indirect costs of sick time, retention issues, morale or energy levels in our employees.
