Incentives bolster workers to adopt beneficial behaviors or maintain an existing beneficial behavior that may potentially help the employee stay healthy and live longer. Adopting beneficial health behavior is fundamentally what wellness is about.

Incentives can be used to boost participation rates, help people complete a Employee Health Promotion Program, or help people modify or adhere to healthy behaviors. Providing incentives and rewards and rewards will send an significant message to the workers that your employer is committed to supporting them with working on their health. It also plays a significant role in motivating people to participate.

Tips on how to choose appropriate incentives:

• Identify through an employee survey what incentives they value.
• Ascertain what rewards and incentives the organization can support as well as what the budget will allow.
• Ensure that every participant who achieves a intention receives some recognition.
• Avoid offering incentives and rewards for the “best” or the “most.”
• Avoid using food as a reward.
• Use incentives/rewards to promote your Corporate Wellness Program, through logos and branding.
