April is Move More Month, and we're celebrating wellness in the workplace and out. Remote work has many benefits, including increased flexibility, reduced commuting time, and the ability to work from anywhere. But it also has a significant impact on employee health and wellness. From ergonomic workspaces to increased movement throughout the day, we're taking a look at how remote or hybrid work policies can be great wellness incentives for employees. We've also included some great employee wellness gifts to inspire you and your team.

Wellness initiatives are great for employers too

A healthier and happier team that has the flexibility to customize their schedule and workplace to accommodate exercise doesn't just benefit employees — it's great for employers too. Wellness initiatives can lower insurance rates and increase productivity and focus. Remote and hybrid policies are in high demand, and meeting employees where they are, both figuratively and geographically, can improve your retention rates and reputation as a responsible and caring employer.

Remote & hybrid health benefits

Flexibility for exercise

Studies show exercise can reduce stress and anxiety, which can significantly impact overall health. Remote days allow employees to plan their workout routines without worrying about commuting to work, saving time and money.  Stretch breaks or a quick workout can improve blood flow, reduce muscle tension, and increase productivity.

Customized ergonomic workspaces

Employees can set up their home office to support specific needs, from adjustable chairs and standing desks to proper lighting and comfortable temperature control. This reduces the risk of developing issues caused by prolonged sitting and poor posture. 

Healthy eating choices

Without the temptation of fast food or office snacks, employees can make healthier meals at home, boosting their energy levels and overall health. Eating a balanced and nutritious diet can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

Stress reduction and work-life balance

Studies show that a good work-life balance improves mental health, reduces stress, and increases job satisfaction. Eliminating commuter stress and office politics lets employees focus on their work and personal lives, leading to a more balanced life.
