Wellness When You Don’t Have (much of) a Budget


So we’ve been talking about wellness programs and the impact they can have on a small business and its employees.  Positive impact does not always facilitate action however.  With limited resources, employers sometimes forego cost-savings measures because (ironically), they cannot afford the upfront costs of implementation.

The great news here is that no matter what your budget is, you CAN offer your employees a solid wellness and benefits program.  And you can do it at no additional costs to your company.  How is this possible? Through the soundness of voluntary benefits!

  • ·         65% of adults do not exercise regularly
  • ·         ½ of all adults have high cholesterol
  • ·         1 out of every 4 adults have high blood pressure
  • ·         30% of adults are obese

By now you've probably learned that these factors contribute to chronic and critical illnesses.  You probably also know that these factors have a measurable impact on absenteeism and productivity in the workplace.  Many of these conditions can be managed or prevented altogether through the resources of a benefits program that includes wellness.  Using voluntary benefits as a vehicle to deliver wellness benefits is a means to giving your employees access without incurring additional costs.

There are many companies in the marketplace currently touting specific or packaged voluntary benefits.  But most are simply aiming at premium dollars without taking the time to structure offerings that will really help employees.  This is where Complete Benefit Solutions is different. 

Our unique process is individually tailored to both the needs of the business and its workforce.  We often find that after implementation, we have actually saved time and money for our clients.  Employees love us because we understand that matter how much they earn, those dollars are need for their families.  Spending it on random products included in a benefits menu does not benefit them or their families.

We specialize in helping businesses of all sizes help their employees secure a solid foundation beyond their paychecks.  Our programs help both employers and employees – a source of pride for us.  Contact us for your free, no strings attached, benefits analysis.  We will tell you, up front, whether we can help you, and how much we will save you in real dollars.  We look forward to hearing from you.
