Health screening
Health screening: knowledge is power
A health screening is one of the most important tools in the corporate wellness toolbox for improving employee health and wellness. However, it’s hard to look beyond the simple pragmatic details of an on-site health screening to understand its power for unlocking improved employee wellness, lower health insurance premiums and reduced absenteeism. Just as small, systematic changes can revolutionize an individual’s fitness, seemingly minor systematic changes within your organization - like regular health screenings - can revolutionize the fitness of the individuals who collectively are your company’s finest asset.
How health screening works
“How does one little blood test do all that?” you may be asking. Yes, a health screening looks like a simple blood test, but the fact is that a well-administered and carefully organized group blood test can enable a health screening that will isolate dozens of risk factors for you and your employees.
Health screenings, such as the health risk assessments (HRAs) performed by EmployeeWellnessUSA, produce an easy-to-read series of reports on the health hazards that threaten your workforce. Depending on the health risk tests that you choose, your health screenings can point out possible problems posed by high blood pressure, obesity, osteoporosis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and many other common health issues. Health screenings can also highlight dangerous levels of toxic workplace substances or industrial chemicals. Lastly, a thorough health screening, whether an on-site health screening at your campus or one arranged at one of our nationwide testing laboratories, can test for health risk management issues with illegal drugs like amphetamines, marijuana, heroin and cocaine.
