Fitbit Goes Corporate with Their Newest Wellness Programs

March 18, 2016 by Adria Ali Leave a Comment

Working 40+ hours a week and spending nearly an hour a day driving on the road can certainly become draining, with only a few hours to relax at home before we have to sleep and start over again. This doesn’t leave a whole lot of time for exercise and this can definitely add stress to your daily life, and nobody wants that.

Fitness programs and services are extremely helpful to those who want to stay in shape. It can be beneficial to a particular individual, as well as a corporation or organization. Maintaining a healthy body and mind outside of the workplace is just as important as maintaining them within the workplace. It’s fair to assume that a number of people spend most of their day at work, so this is definitely crucial. Even Fitbit, the company known for their activity trackers and wearable tech, has caught on to this.

“By 2018, more than 13 million wearable activity-tracking devices will be integrated into employee wellness programs, based on estimates from ABI Research. That’s compared to fewer than 200,000 wearable devices used along with corporate wellness plans last year, according to principal analyst Jonathan Collins, as quoted by Mobihealth News (source).”

Fitbit Wellness is the corporate wellness offering of Fitbit, putting its focus on how health and wellness impacts organizations and corporations. Fitbit carried out a survey in which they discovered several benefits, as well as a few things that might be a hindrance. Taking part in one of these programs could be very beneficial to your daily life, but let’s take a closer look at some of the details.

Corporate Fitness Stats for Wellness Programs

Nearly 53% of CEO’s believe that effective wellness programs can allow employees to feel more productive. 51% of the CEO’s said their programs increased the ability to retain their employees. 47% felt that these programs decrease the costs of healthcare, while another 47% claimed the wellness programs created a strong bonding environment in the workplace. That makes plenty of sense. In addition, the amount of sick days employees would potentially used would be decreased.

However, one setback could be the fact that some of these CEO’s are not regularly making updates and changes to their wellness programs. Some haven’t made changes within the last three to five years, and about a quarter of the CEO’s find it very difficult to keep track of the data. 23% of CEO’s say that their employees are not participating as much as they would like, while another 20% have stated that the costs of these wellness programs are pretty high.

Weighing the pros and cons based on these survey’s, the positives do seem to outweigh the negatives. There are a higher percentage of people giving positive praise to these wellness programs.
