The Healthiest Place to Work in the World

A Look at a Truly Healthy Workplace

Obesity, depression and chronic disease are escalating epidemics in our society. We spend the vast majority of our day at work. Wouldn’t it make sense to examine how our working environment is encouraging health or cultivating disease? Given the vast majority of our ailments are diet and lifestyle related, are healthy foods and habits not the key to a happy, productive workforce? Deadlines and workload leave little time for employees to think about making the right food and lifestyle choices at work. What if corporations took this added stress out of the hands of their people by making healthy food and exercise more convenient at work? Or if nutritious options were the cheapest, most accessible in the corporate canteen, rather than the usual nutrient-void, sleep-inducing alternatives? What if we encouraged and rewarded employees for utilizing an inviting gym or other stress-reducing activity?

Well, let me introduce you to Technogym. Technogym is a role model amongst corporations in the lengths they go to inspire their team to be healthy. Everything from the design of their building, to the canteen food, to the diversity of classes in their high-tech gym, inspires and educates their staff. The impact of this wellness culture is a natural gravitation towards making positive choices. This ultimately enhances achievement at work and improves the quality of their lives!
