Wellness in the workplace: beyond the point of no return.
Since 1982, two major developments in the worksite wellness are that: A) Wellness has surpassed the point of being a fad and is being woven into the fabric of the work-place; and B) Worksite health promotion programs have surpassed the point of being quiescent benefits for employers and employees to being documented quantifiable and qualitative benefits. Seven evidences are discussed to substantiate the first development, and a series of studies are cited to demonstrate definitive healthful changes attributable to the emphasis on wellness and the documentable economic benefits associated with worksite wellness programs.
