Forum: Wellness and Productivity The Ultimate Outcome
New Zealand baby boomers don’t want to retire but what they do want is to remain fit, active, healthy and happy for as long as possible. What role can businesses play to support this? What changes need to be made now to support all who make up our existing and future workforce?
Half the New Zealand labour force will be older than 42 years in 2031, compared with a median age of 40 years in 2006, and 36 years in 1991.
Peoples value increases over time …they are an appreciable asset. There needs to be a better way of accounting for the value of knowledge base and health in making people productive over a long period of time. We are human capital and we need to be viewed as assets rather than an expense.
This forum provides the opportunity to create awareness of:
- What is workplace wellness?
- How is may impact the organisation.
- How you are a part of employee wellness.
Facilitators: Sarah Jimmink of TriEx Health Safety and Wellness Ltd stems from a career in New Zealand’s Hospitality, Tourism and Event Management industries after studying Management at Lincoln University. Over the last five years Sarah has established herself as both a recognized national and international business coach working with ex-pats in Thailand, Dubai and Europe.
