Canadian Companies are Losing out on Billions in Productivity
(Ottawa, Ontario) Healthy, happy employees are a company’s greatest asset. Unfortunately, recent studies have shown that employee absenteeism is costing Canadian companies over one billion dollars per year. The issue of employee wellness affects far more than simple productivity - healthy, contented workers are now acknowledged as a major factor in achieving corporate success for firms both large and small.
“We are committed to having massage therapy available in-house for our staff as part of our health and wellness program initiatives. Positive feedback from staff indicates that they appreciate the ability to attend these convenient massage therapy sessions as part of improving their own overall health and well-being. It is great to be able to offer our staff a helping hand in improving their work-life balance,” explains Courtney Régimbald, Human Resources Specialist with the Canadian Council on Health Services Accreditation.
“In today’s competitive business landscape, company culture is everything. You want your company to be known as a respectable and responsible employer. Furthermore, you want to have a culture that is innovative and promotes employee well-being” says Mr. Francoeur, Managing Director of Corporate Massage Therapy.
