Imagine: An employer offers to pay the majority of it’s employee’s monthly premium, with the only requirement being the employee’s participation in the company sponsored wellness program. If the employee abides, they only pay 25% of their premium, but if they opt out of the wellness program, they are responsible for their premium in its entirety.

Does this scenario seem realistic? Believe it. A federal district judge recently ruled against the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and held that an employer can require workers to undergo health screenings as a condition for receiving employer-provided health coverage.

But what’s the best way to avoid these sort of issues before they become a problem? That’s simple: Provide a convenient and effortless wellness program that makes it easier to participate than not to.

Employee wellness programs are one of the most effective strategies for improving a workplace. They are a great way to show employees that they are valued and they have been proven to help the company bottom-line. Even better, Star Wellness is the perfect way to make participation quick and easy for employees and employers alike.
