Our example calendar demonstrates how you could engage your employees in key health awareness dates throughout the year supported by our range of wellbeing solutions from health cash plans to wellbeing webinars, mental health first aid training or health screenings.
Awareness days are a great way to engage your employees with their health and wellbeing. The national promotion of these dates often makes them a topic of discussion both in the media and our workplaces, helping you to start the conversation around the key wellbeing challenges that your people might be facing.
Our consultants can work with you to create a bespoke strategy of employee benefits so you can support your people all year round.
