70% of Singapore workers not using company wellness program: survey
Due to lack of time and workload.
According to a recent JobStreet.com survey, 60 per cent of the companies organized wellness programs to improve employees’ health.
The most popular wellness program was shown to be free or subsidized health screening. On-site fitness programs and subsidized gym memberships are other popular wellness programs offered by companies.
However, among the employees whose companies do offer wellness programs, only a minority said they utilize them. Seventy per cent of employees claimed they do not have the chance to utilize the wellness programs provided due to lack of time and an overwhelming workload.
