Top 10 Employee Wellness Solution Companies — 2019
The health of any organization is proportional to the health of its employees. As more companies become increasingly aware of this fact, employee wellness programs are experiencing greater attention and adoption. Today, there are several trends emerging in the employee wellness space, and it is crucial for HR professionals to stay informed about the recent developments to ensure the long-term sustenance and positive outcomes of wellness programs.
Most companies today aim to achieve their business goals while not risking employee burnouts. As part of their wellness programs, they are adopting different strategies like flexible schedules and encouraging more productive sleep and work routines among employees that will ultimately lower the frequency of burnouts. Surveys also indicate the growing popularity and effectiveness of financial wellness programs. The emergence of financial fitness tools also has a positive influence on employee happiness and productivity.
Innovative technologies can help organizations make their employee wellness programs bear fruit. Artificial Intelligence is set to make a lasting impact on the personalization of wellness programs. Leveraging the data collected through the programs, AI is redefining user experience based on employee preferences. Among the top concerns in the space, however, is the privacy of wellness data collected from employees through the programs.

Meanwhile, organizations must ensure that employee wellness solution providers ensure data privacy to meet user and compliance requirements.
