It is believed that healthy employees make a happier and productive workforce. Maintaining such a state has been a challenge as the business workforce continues to evolve in the current hybrid environment.
Nowadays, employers are finding more innovative ways to create a culture of wellness to help employees continue being productive while building healthy habits in both their personal and professional lives.
This holds true in Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc. (Sun Life Grepa), a major life insurance company in the country. For Sun Life Grepa, this culture of health has meant developing holistic wellness programs for its employees that improve not only their physical well-being but their mental health as well. These programs also demonstrate the company’s support for the United Nations’ Millennium Sustainable Development Goal #3 which aspires to ensure health and well-being for all.
