At Employ Health, we understand the pivotal role wellbeing plays in creating a thriving workplace. Our Health and Wellbeing Programs extend beyond conventional practices, aiming to support health and safety at work while enhancing the overall wellbeing of individuals outside the workplace.
Health and wellbeing programs are the gateway to a transformative journey for employees. They create a culture of positivity and support, where your personal success and wellbeing matters.
Health and wellbeing programs aren’t just about health; they’re a magic wand for positive behaviour change. Ackland et al. (2005) reveals they work wonders—from boosting physical activity to taming cardiovascular risks—making a healthy workplace the happiest.
Queens School of Business and Gallup say disengaged workers bring a whirlwind of issues. Enter health and wellbeing programs, not just changing stats but crafting a positive culture to bid adieu to absenteeism, accidents and errors.
The Robert Walters Group suggests 92% of employees crave a workplace with wellness. Wellness Proposals (2009) unveil the secret sauce: happy, healthy workers. It’s the key to the business success equation, benefiting both the employer and the employee.
Corporate health and wellbeing programs at Employ Health are carefully crafted initiatives designed to go beyond the traditional notion of workplace health. For those new to the concept, these programs are proactive and comprehensive strategies aimed at enhancing the overall health and wellbeing of individuals within and beyond the workplace environment.
Our Health and Wellbeing Programs encompass a diverse range of tailored initiatives that support health and safety at work while prioritising the holistic wellbeing of individuals. From Mental Health First Aid to Fit for Life Checks, these programs cater to both the physical and mental aspects of wellbeing, fostering a positive workplace culture.
Employ Health’s Health and Wellbeing Programs are for forward-thinking workplaces and organisations that prioritise the health and wellbeing of their employees. Whether you are a small business or a large corporation, our programs are designed to be adaptable, ensuring relevance and effectiveness across various workplace settings.
The benefits of health and wellbeing programs are not just about checking boxes; they are about creating a transformative culture where employees feel supported, engaged and genuinely cared for. Our Health and Wellbeing Programs in the workplace lead to a healthier, happier and more productive workforce.
With Australia's ageing workforce, corporate health and wellbeing programs not only foster safer workplaces but also keep valuable experienced professionals on board, ensuring a continuous wealth of expertise and skills.
The Robert Walters Group reveals that upgrading the workplace environment through health and wellbeing programs leads to up to 15% productivity gains. Addressing stress and disengagement creates a workforce that feels valued, ultimately fostering loyalty and heightened productivity.
A Kaplan study emphasises that health and wellbeing programs significantly improve retention rates, reducing the costly impact of staff turnover. A positive view of workplace health promotion makes employees four times more likely to stay, with 64% planning to remain for at least five years.
1 in 5 Australians grapple with mental health challenges annually and addressing mental health issues in the workplace often leaves individuals unsure. Our Mental Health First Aid program empowers employees with the skills to identify and support colleagues in need.

At Employ Health, we are committed to executing our vision of making the workplace a hub for health change. We acknowledge that making long term changes to a workplace’s health and wellbeing is not an easy process. That is why we pride ourselves on being ‘marathon runners’ - we’re in this with you for the long haul. We’re focused on long term partnerships that create sustainable workplace health changes and growth, rather than quick fixes that are only feasible in the short term.
Employ Health is one of Australia's most innovative workplace health and risk management providers, with demonstrated experience in delivering onsite physiotherapy services to a range of industries. Our experienced leadership team has been undertaking workplace health and risk management services since 2006 and have built a team of elite performers in workplace health. Through our onsite ‘health hub’ model we have helped our partners increase productivity, reduce LTIs and slash thousands from their Workers’ Compensation premiums.
At Employ Health, we are ‘game changers’. We strive to exceed expectations and deliver new ways of thinking. We acknowledge that every workplace is different and therefore, we are passionate about ensuring that each onsite program we deliver is specifically tailored to that workplace’s needs. We love a challenge and work closely with our partners to establish a program that they are happy with and that we know will get the best outcome for that particular workplace. We are not happy with average, at Employ Health we strive to produce game changing results.
To ensure a Workplace Health and Wellbeing Program is successful and well utilised by all employees, we highly recommend the senior leadership team within the organisation champion the program, through regularly mentioning it in meetings/toolbox talks, and participating in the program themselves. It is also recommended that the senior leadership team create an employee group who assist with driving the employee health and wellness programs. This can be through feedback forums and driving suggestions and new initiatives to be included in the program.
This is something Employ Health is happy to assist your business with based on the information you provide to us about your workplace. Employ Health is happy to provide feedback about objectives that we believe will benefit the business in the long term, based on our previous experience in this area.
The effectiveness of a Health and Wellbeing Program in the workplace is determined by the objectives that are agreed upon at the start of the program. At the conclusion of the program, we will provide you with feedback about these objectives and the results of the overall success of the program. This will in turn help to determine which direction the workplace decides to go from there to continue to improve the wellbeing of their business.
There are grants available for different industries but we recommend looking into this yourself to see if your workplace is eligible.
