Workplace wellness programmes

Workplace Wellness is an engaging programme designed to empower your employees to manage their own health and wellbeing through regular contacts with our nurses and your organisation. We offer bespoke wellness programmes that focus on areas that are specific to your organisation and employees including heart health including cholesterol and blood pressure, blood sugar/ diabetes and activity and lifestyle assessments.

Most adults spend more of their waking hours at work than anywhere else, making it a prime place for promoting healthful habits to ensure they remain well and flourishing. Worksites are an easy and efficient venue to conduct such checks and often employees enjoy this and are grateful to have their employer take their health seriously.The worksite organizational culture and environment are powerful influences on behavior and this needs to be put to use as a means of assisting employees to adopt a healthier lifestyle.

At Occupational Health Map we offer corporate wellness programmes delivered at your workplace within the Wellington, Lower Hutt, Kapiti, Porirua or Upper Hutt areas.
