Employee wellness is a concept that is gaining more attention and traction as companies are starting to recognize the benefits that such initiatives can provide. For those companies willing to take an active interest in the health and well-being of their employees, the results tend to be lower attrition, greater loyalty, lower absenteeism and increased productivity.
InfoCision Management Corporation is one company that has taken such an active role and is reaping the benefits. Akron General Medical Center has honored InfoCision as a silver level winner of the second annual statewide Wellness Champion Award in the corporate category. For this level, InfoCision received $3,500 to reinvest into its employee wellness program.
This reward was given to InfoCision as a result of its commitment to and investment in employee wellness through amenities including on-site fitness centers, on-site wellness clinics staffed by physicians, employee health fairs, fitness contests, workout classes, subsidized tobacco cessation assistance and many other wellness initiatives.
As a result of the company’s initiatives in its corporate health and wellness program, InfoCision has been able to produce a happier and healthier workforce. The company has also been able to reduce health insurance premiums for the company and employees.
The Akron General Wellness Champion Award was created to honor leaders – both individuals and corporations – throughout Ohio who have demonstrated impressive strides toward the improvement of personal health or the health of their employees.
In receiving this award, InfoCision has demonstrated that it takes an active interest in the health and well-being of its employees. Whether it is merely to improve productivity or to create a better work environment, the reality is that both the company and its employees are benefiting from such initiatives.
InfoCision Management Corporation is the second largest privately held teleservice company and has made a strong name for itself in customer care services, commercial sales and marketing for a variety of Fortune 100 companies and smaller businesses.
