State of the American Workplace a 2013 Gallup Study
WHO ARE WE TAKING CARE OF
ldquoWe must find ways to engage our nurses administrative staff physicians housekeeping staff supervisors switchboard operators etc so that they WANT to provide great service to their patients Itrsquos not that we think patients are not important But there is a direct correlation between employee loyalty and customer loyalty And with more restrictive reimbursements on the horizon the pressure will continue to rise on patient acquisition and retentionrdquo

lives
-Northwestern National Life
Three-fourths of employees believe the worker has more on-the-job stress
than a generation ago
-Princeton Survey Research Associates
Problems at work are more strongly associated with health complaints than
are any other life stressor-more so than even financial problems or family
problems

cholesterol
6242016
15
FEDERAL REGULATION INCENTIVES
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA) permits
employers to offer cash incentives to employees for participating in
Wellness Programs and reaching certain targets
Current law limits the value of Wellness incentives to 30 of the total
health care premium spent per worker The law also allows 50 in
programs targeting tobacco use
CONCERNS
Concern that health promotion programs are discriminatory
mdash allowing employers to shift medical costs to workers in
poor health
In October 2014 the EEOC filed a claim against Honeywell
claiming its biometric testing program violated the ADA

MINDFULNESS FAST-GROWING PROGRAM FOR
STRESS REDUCTION AND BURN-OUT
PREVENTION
CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

Mindfulness can help all employees but it can be particularly
beneficial for senior leaders

on the job you will be a more effective leader
you will make better decisions and you will work
better with other peoplerdquo

Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

WELL-BEING PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH
Anxiety Depression Stress and Burn-out
One-fourth of employees view their jobs as the number one stressor in their
lives
-Northwestern National Life
Three-fourths of employees believe the worker has more on-the-job stress
than a generation ago
-Princeton Survey Research Associates
Problems at work are more strongly associated with health complaints than
are any other life stressor-more so than even financial problems or family
problems
-St Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Co
BENEFITS OF WELLNESS PROGRAMS
Lowering health care costs
Reducing absenteeism
Achieving higher employee productivity
Reducing workersrsquo compensation and disability-related costs
Reducing injury
Improving employee morale and loyalty

WELLNESS PROGRAMS
Cost Savings
Average savings $337 for every dollar invested
Johnson and Johnson leaders estimate that wellness programs have cumulatively saved the company $250 million on health care costs over the past decade from 2002 to 2008 the return was $271 for every dollar spent
Lower Absenteeism - absenteeism costs fall by about $273 for every dollar spent

FEDERAL REGULATION INCENTIVES
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA) permits
employers to offer cash incentives to employees for participating in
Wellness Programs and reaching certain targets
Current law limits the value of Wellness incentives to 30 of the total
health care premium spent per worker The law also allows 50 in
programs targeting tobacco use
CONCERNS
Concern that health promotion programs are discriminatory
mdash allowing employers to shift medical costs to workers in
poor health
In October 2014 the EEOC filed a claim against Honeywell
claiming its biometric testing program violated the ADA

PREVENTION
CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

Mindfulness can help all employees but it can be particularly
beneficial for senior leaders
ldquoThe main business case for (mindfulness) is that if yoursquore fully present
on the job you will be a more effective leader
you will make better decisions and you will work
better with other peoplerdquo

STRESS REDUCTION AND BURN-OUT
PREVENTION
CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

PREVENTION
CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress

MINDFULNESS FAST-GROWING PROGRAM FOR
STRESS REDUCTION AND BURN-OUT
PREVENTION
CASE STUDY AETNA INSURANCE
Divided employees into quintiles by stress markers such as heart rate
Found that the most stressed group had average medical costs $2500 a year higher than the least-stressed group
After mindfulness and yoga training for 12 weeks the costs drop markedly
Company pegged the added cost for the most-stressed employees in the study of 458 people at nearly $2000rdquo
That figure even seems a bit low if you consider that obesity could be linked to stress
