AMP works with employers to improve the organizational health and workplace culture, while engaging employees and enhancing the workplace environment.

Having healthier employees can lower direct costs such as insurance premiums and worker’s compensation
claims and can positively impact many indirect costs such as job satisfaction, absenteeism and worker productivity. 

The use of effective workplace programs and policies can reduce health risks and improve the quality of life for American workers.

Various print media, newsletter and email templates, and social media graphics can be provided to workplaces. Staff at AMP are qualified to provide educational seminars, workshops, or one time classes on weight management, disease management (diabetes), and the importance of good nutrition or physical activity.

[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”We don’t have a budget for workplace wellbeing.” style=”square_outline” color=”orange”]You are in luck! This is the case with many workplaces, especially small businesses. AMP can provide support with education, programming, and other resources. The only costs to you would be the staff person responsible for coordinating with us for planning and implementation of your workplace wellbeing program. AMP will take care of the rest, including many options for incentives. [/vc_toggle][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_toggle title=”We don’t have the time to develop a workplace wellbeing plan.” style=”square_outline” color=”green”]AMP can also help your workplace wellbeing coordinator with that. There is already high expectations of staff and it can be hard to juggle additional responsibilities, but we have found that a healthier workforce produces big changes in employees, not just in their wellness, but also productivity and loyalty to company. 

AMP will work with the appointed wellbeing coordinator to evaluate, develop, and implement a program that is best for your business. Additionally, leadership support and commitment is critical to the success of the program.
