The human arsenal has always been a little on the loaded side, and yet it still hasn’t seen anything more significant than that desire of ours to improve on a consistent basis. We can say this because the stated desire has already fetched the world some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a rather unique member of the group. The reason why technology’s credentials are so anomalous is, by and large, predicated upon its skill-set, which ushered us towards a reality that nobody could have ever imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, a closer look should be able to reveal how the whole runner was also very much inspired by the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence and made it the ultimate centerpiece of every horizon. Now, having such a powerful tool run the show did expand our experience in many different directions, but even after reaching so far ahead, this prodigious concept called technology will somehow keep on delivering the goods. The same has grown to become a lot more evident in recent times, and assuming one new HRM-themed development pans out just like we envision, it will only propel that trend towards greater heights over the near future and beyond.
Flimp Communications, a leading provider of employee benefits communication and decision-support solutions, has officially released a new Employee Wellness Kit for corporate HR, benefits and wellness managers. According to certain reports, the stated toolkit comes packed with actionable resources, communication ideas, and content templates that will work together to encourage a broader prevalence of employer-sponsored wellness programs and health benefits. Talk about what all is included in the mix, the solution, for starters, will contain more than 20 wellness program ideas, ideas that your HR leaders can implement right away. Once implemented, though, you would also need to track the efficacy of the picked idea so to understand whether it compliments your unique needs or not. Fortunately, Flimp’s employee wellness toolkit takes care of that as well by offering extensive guidelines in regards to how one can measure the program’s progress. Moving on, as a part of the stated solution, you also receive these worksheets to share with employees including a free 30-day wellness challenge, a habit tracker, and more. Hold on, we aren’t done yet. Flimp’s wellness toolkit further makes the user’s life easier through creative promotion strategies. The stated strategies are meant to get the word out about wellness programs in the most attention-grabbing manner possible, thus ensuring that maximum people are benefitted. Rounding off the highlights are all the real-world examples of successful wellness initiatives. The intention here is, of course, to either let the user emulate an already-established idea or treat the given examples like an inspiration for something different, and even potentially better.
“Getting employees to actually use employer-sponsored health and wellness programs and benefits continues to be a challenge for many employers,” said Wayne Wall, CEO and founder of Flimp Communications. “At Flimp, we’re developing better ways to help employers communicate and educate employees and their dependents about the different health and wellness programs available to them, many of which are offered at no cost, yet, have very low utilization rates.”
The development provides an interesting follow-up to Workplace Wellness and Financial Education Programs: 2022 Survey conducted by International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans. Going by this survey, stress was cited by 65% of respondents as a top health issue impacting workforce productivity. In response to that, employers across industries have notably started offering wellness benefits such as employee assistance programs (90%), mental health coverage (86%), substance-use-disorder benefits (67%), mental health mobile apps (41%), and educational/informational sessions hosted at the workplace (40%). Apart from it, the survey also revealed that nearly 73% of organizations have increased communication around mental and behavioral health offerings. But are these efforts paying off? In short, yes. If we put our stock in a separate study conceived by Harvard researchers, we’d learn how for every dollar spent on wellness programs, employers save $3.27 on medical costs and $2.73 on absenteeism costs.
That being said, what makes Flimp Communication an ideal contributor in the stated cause? Well, founded in 2011, Flimp has risen up the ranks purely on the back of its ability to provide employee benefits communication and decision-support solutions for employers, consultants, enrollers, and insurance providers. The company delivers on the stated value proposition using its bleeding-edge SaaS platform, which can help users take informed decisions regarding employer-sponsored healthcare, wellness programs, insurance benefits, and financial well-being. Flimp’s excellence can also be inferred from the fact that it is, at present, serving over 1,000 corporate clients, including dozens of Fortune 500 companies.
