70% of Singapore workers not using company wellness program: survey

Due to lack of time and workload.

According to a recent JobStreet.com survey, 60 per cent of the companies organized wellness programs to improve employees’ health.

The most popular wellness program was shown to be free or subsidized health screening. On-site fitness programs and subsidized gym memberships are other popular wellness programs offered by companies.

However, among the employees whose companies do offer wellness programs, only a minority said they utilize them. Seventy per cent of employees claimed they do not have the chance to utilize the wellness programs provided due to lack of time and an overwhelming workload.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
