Fit4Work: vitality at work
Do your employees do their work full of energy each day? Fit4Work gives them tools to handle stress better, increase their resilience and be more energised. See what our programme does to take your employees’ wellbeing to a higher level.
Why are vitality and resilience important?
Your organisation’s success is founded on vibrant, secure employees. Do you invest in their wellbeing? This also improves their vitality and resilience.
The Fit4Work Vitality offer addresses the physical and social environment, sleep habits, rest and relaxation, exercise and nutrition. Together, these elements determine our mood, energy levels and health. That means they also influence how we feel and behave at home and in the workplace.
How do you prioritise mental wellbeing at work?
- Raise awareness and motivate your employees. Promote healthy lifestyle and sleeping habits and provide training on techniques for resilience, rest and relaxation.
- Create a positive working environment. Emphasise the importance of balance, respect rest and leave periods and strengthen group dynamics.
- Train your employees on caring for their health. Organise practical workshops and actions to raise vitality awareness.
- Provide motivational coaching sessions. Schedule individual or group coaching sessions for mental health and resilience.
- Make healthy choices easier. Set out a fruit bowl, add water to your soft drink dispenser or offer electric bikes as an extra-legal benefit.
