Effective prevention, timely support
Beneva has developed unique workplace health and wellness expertise. We offer support based on best practices and evidence-based data to put the physical and mental health of employees front and centre, and make it a priority for companies.
Guidance and support
Health promotion and prevention
Workplace health and wellness is all about culture, something we know a lot about. We analyze each company’s environment for a clearer picture and build a solid action plan to introduce, reinforce and maintain a true health and wellness culture.
How does it work? Three easy steps:
-
Diagnosis and engagement
Using a structured approach, our experts will guide you through all the steps: management buy-in, analyzing key indicators, setting up a health and wellness committee, an action plan, etc.
-
Health and wellness practices
Introducing practices that foster employee health and wellness is key to success: lifestyle habits, management practices, work environment and work/life balance—there are many areas to explore and we’ll be there to help you.
-
Tools promoting health and wellness
To help companies kick off their action plan, we give them access to tools promoting health and wellness: webinars, training, challenges and much more!
