5 Reasons Why Your Workplace Wellbeing Program
Will Fail
![Page 2: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
1. It’s fixated on “Health”
![Page 3: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Truth?
Health is only one (weak) contributor to core business objectives (revenue growth/cost control)*
Instead:Develop a holistic wellbeing program that includes all
aspects of wellbeing (e.g. social & community)
*applies to Australia and New Zealand

2. It Produces Irrelevant Data
![Page 5: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Truth?
Metrics such as ‘steps walked’, ‘cholesterol levels’ or ‘helpfulness of program’ do not relate to core business
objectives
Instead:Run programs that produce useful, comparable data such as identification of key talent and leaders and
workplace culture metrics

3. It’s Not Fun (& Not Priority)
![Page 7: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Truth?
Participation in traditional ‘health and wellness’ programs is very low
(expect less than 50% of staff to participate in screening procedures, less than 10% in interventional programs [RAND 2013})
Instead:Tie ‘health’ programs to ‘performance, recognition,
collaboration and promotion’ (the things employees really care about). And make it fun.

4. The Costs Exceed the Benefits
![Page 9: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Truth?
There is no proven ROI on ‘health programs’ in Australia or New Zealand
(if you can prove us wrong, we’ll run your wellbeing program for free for a full year- guaranteed)
Instead:Keep costs minimal while you find a way to measure your program’s direct impact on key business goals.

5. It Takes Up (a lot of) Your Time
![Page 11: 5 Reasons Your Wellbeing Program Will Fail](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55662125d8b42a7d608b53cd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Truth?
Wellbeing is often one of many roles for an HR or OH&S professional. It can be time consuming and
operationally demanding
Instead:Ensure your wellness program frees you up to manage
and oversee it, rather than operate it.
