\nQuitting smoking is a very difficult thing to do. People enjoy the satisfaction of an addiction and prefer instant gratification over long term benefits. Much like going to the gym, resisting a cigarette is tough to do because it requires commitment. An approach to health prioritizing wellness techniques can do a lot to prevent long term harm because it teaches disciplined practice of committing to your good practices. It requires self control to stay well and promote health; however, this journey also requires community. Where better to have a healthy community than in the workplace? <\/p>\n<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video src=”#” image_src=”https:\/\/contaminasian.com\/okcnativehealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/stockton_21.jpg” _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||30px||false|false” custom_padding=”||8px|||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”1f09816e-184e-4ce5-a4cf-b39c52c423ca” text_font=”Raleway|500|||||||” text_text_color=”#0D291F” text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.75em” text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”55px” header_font_size_last_edited=”off|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”]So, how do you as an employer help your employees remain well (and in doing so, lower your healthcare expenditures)? We identify three main ways you can establish a healthy workplace:<\/p>\n
Nudging Your Employees
\nThis could mean anything from offering free water bottles to your employees to promote hydration or replacing the snacks in the vending machines with healthier options. Nudging sends signals to employees that other tracks are open through small actions and gestures.<\/p>\n
Highlighting Positive Results
\nMaking health seem accessible and desirable in the workplace can help influence employees to act in healthier ways. Educating your staff on cancer, heart disease, and other health risks associated with unhealthy lifestyles before showing them the steps one can take to live a healthier life and how much more pleasant retirement can be without these chronic issues. <\/p>\n
Promoting Teamwork and Community
\nStudies show that people tend to act based on what they perceive is popular. If a group of employees bands together in order to improve their health, any given employee is more likely to hop on the train as well in an attempt not to be left out. Such peer support can go a long way in making lasting impacts on the health of everyone in the community.<\/p>\n
And there you have it! Behavioral tools for creating a healthier workplace. We hope these help you and your team lower their healthcare costs and woes.
