Implementing a Health Risk Management (HRM) program to mitigate workforce health risks can save employers spending on health and improve worker productivity.

On average ISOsafe's HRM programs provide savings of $2.03 for every $1 invested. The savings offset the increased costs of compliance. 

Examples of initiatives within a HRM program include:
•    Workday fitness activities such as walking challenges
•    Exercise programs available at the workplace
•    Sponsored or discounted fitness memberships or on-site fitness centre
•    Lunch and learn health programs (healthy cooking, disease education, etc.)

The success of any HRM program is largely based on employee engagement. Some rewards to encourage participation and achievements can include:
•    Paid time off – can be as little as an early out Friday or paid half or full days off
•    Cash equivalents – small cash incentives or gift cards or drawings for same
•    Merchandise – company t-shirts, health-specific merchandise (FitBit, pedometer, etc.)
•    Travel/Tickets – drawings for premium items such as weekend trips or concert tickets

Implementing a HRM program at your workplace can reduce expenses related to:
•    Absenteeism
•    Presenteeism
•    Productivity
•    Creativity
•    Insurance premiums
•    Legal Compliance
