A 1 percent drop in absenteeism saves all companies in the Netherlands together 2.6 billion euros in costs annually. Per employee, that amounts to about 400 euros per year. That's an incredible amount. Healthy employees are also worth much more
Healthy Employees
Indeed, what is entirely a benefit is that healthy employees ensure higher productivity. A 1 percent increase in this accounts for an additional 6 billion euros per year. For a company with 100 employees, that equals an annual increase in sales of 95,000 euros. Interesting to invest in health it seems to me.
Health
Health is often seen as something you do on the side. Now that it has been made clear that it does benefit companies, it suddenly becomes an interesting investment. Nutrition and exercise can of course be promoted more positively in your company, and many large companies have great programs for this.
However, when you consider that more than 60% of (physical) complaints stem from a mental problem, it is very wise to receive training in that area as well. Hypnosis Institute Netherlands has been providing training for companies in this area for years. Perhaps an idea for your company?
Mental resilience training is very important to cope with today's workload. With a special hypnosis program, you can quickly "reset" yourself and get back to work. This doesn't have to take more than 10 minutes and you can get back to work fresh. These short breaks make you much more productive.
