How to choose the right health and fitness benefits

Published by HealthFitness on October 1st, 2024

A new era of fitness and wellbeing is emerging, and we all can play a role in making it easy and accessible for employees to care for their health and fitness. At HealthFitness, we have transformed our approach to supporting your workforce to offer equity in benefits and engage all employees.


How do you choose the right health and benefits for your employees? Let’s start with good news:  With HealthFitness, you don’t have to choose — and neither do your employees!

What do employees want?

Employer survey results show that employees aren’t returning to the office, with only 9 percent preferring to work on-site and 59 percent preferring to work a hybrid schedule. The surveys shows 32 percent would like to work exclusively remote.(1)

Employees want support for wellbeing

And although employees prefer a hybrid schedule, they still want support for their wellbeing. According to McKinsey, 26 percent of employees listed a lack of support for health and wellbeing as a top reason for quitting. And 30 percent of employees surveyed listed adequate support for health and wellbeing as a reason to stay.(2)

There is a growing need to meet the wellness needs of the workforce because of the positive impact on participants — with 23 percent reporting better mental health and 17 percent reporting greater physical health, resulting in better performance and retention, according to Gartner.(3)

Employees want convenience and flexibility

In a world where your employees have so many choices for moving and taking care of themselves, we’re making it easier for them — we’re not asking them to choose.

We’re meeting them where they’re at, and in ways that matter to them most. We know convenience and flexibility are important, now more than ever with hybrid environments, and that people want options with not only what activities they’re doing but with when and how as well.

We can help you offer more options to engage all employees, regardless of location, with new services — all under one contract.

A complete fitness solution for today's workforce

Today’s employers are looking at their benefits in a new way. Employers are trying to choose the “right” benefits that provide the most value for employees, including:
  • Equity in benefits
  • Retaining and attracting talent
  • Building community and keeping people connected regardless of where they are remote, on-site or hybrid.
HealthFitness has the proper solution for these challenging and uncertain times. We have packaged our solution in a very approachable way, yet adequate for diverse health and fitness needs.
