In today’s economy, the bottom line is more impor-tant than ever. And few things affect your bottom line as much as your employees do. Healthy workers cost less, produce more and stay with your company longer. That’s good for the bottom line, good for employee morale and great for business.

Learn It Live Connects Your Employees to Life-Changing Health & Wellness Experts Online

For these reasons, wellness programs have become a strategic imperative for companies and organizations of all sizes, especially in the modern “do-more-with-less” business environ-ment. According to new studies, the hard return on employee wellness programs can be quite astonishing as well.

For example, employee wellness programs significantly improve employee health. The savings on employer-sponsored healthcare costs alone make for an impressive return on invest-ment. Employee productivity is also increased. Participants are absent less often and perform better at work than their nonparticipant cowork-ers. Overall, company morale is greatly improved. Employee trust and commitment increase, contributing to a more vigorous organization.

However, a wellness program alone is not enough to garner these returns. The program must be convenient and accessible if it is to be effective. Learn It Live offers companies and organizations a new type of wellness program –one based squarely on these essential concepts.

Via the Learn It Live platform, your employees can meet face-to-face with wellness experts from the convenience of their homes or offices. Live video-conferencing provides access to life-changing nutrition, fitness, cooking, yoga, and stress reduction classes at times that suit any busy schedule.

Created to address the specific wellness needs of employees, Learn It Live’s wellness program will enable your workforce to live the healthiest lifestyle possible and thrive from the year 2012 onward. That’s good for your company and great for your bottom line.

According to “An Unhealthy America: The Economic Burden of Chronic Disease,” by the Milken Institute, one-third of the American workforce suffers from preventable disease in any given year. The cost to employer profitabil-ity is immense. Research shows that lost produc-tivity due to chronic illness costs companies more each year than is spent on employer-sponsored health insurance.

While no one can eliminate hereditary risk factors for poor health, focused education can fortunately mitigate others. A targeted wellness program, for example, can greatly reduce the occurrence of illness due to poor nutrition, physical inactivity, obesity, excessive stress, smoking and alcohol use. And research proves the results of such programs are well worth the effort.

Wellness programs deliver a clear return on investment, up to $6 saved for every $1 spent. In addition, 52 percent of workers participating in a wellness program report increased energy and greater productivity at work. Another 35 percent say that the information they learned in a wellness program led them to miss fewer days of work. A study by the National Business Group on Health revealed that highly effective wellness programs also reduce voluntary attrition to as little as 9 percent.

Many American businesses, large and small, have implemented employee wellness programs and seen significant results. According to the Harvard Business Review, the wellness program at Johnson & Johnson has saved the company $250 million on employee healthcare costs over the past decade. The MD Anderson Cancer Center has seen lost workdays decline by 80 percent since implementation of their wellness program –for a savings of $1.5 million.

With a Learn It Live wellnessprogram, tailored to your organization’s particular needs,you can achieve similar results.

From fitness and yoga, to nutrition and cooking, to relaxation, medita-tion and more, your employees will find Learn It Live’s online wellness classes accessible, convenient and effective.

Healthy workers are essential for running a profitable business. They cost companies less, produce more and retain their jobs longer. Without a healthy workforce, business –and the bottom line– always suffers. Unfortunately, many studies show that overall employee health is nearing a crisis point.

“I recently signed up for a nursing review course through Learn It Live. Initially I had some confusion about how online learning worked. I emailed Learn It Live and immediately received an email from the support staff. I was given clear instructions and directions on how everything worked, and some tips on how to get the most from online learning. I later contacted support staff with some questions on accessing learning content related to my class. I once again immediately received an email with all the answers and more! I want to commend Learn It Live support staff for their professionalism, prompt-ness and diligence with working with me. Thank you for your hard work!”

Rachel from Georgia (student in fitness):

“After a year of not being able to exercise,I am now back and one of the first classes I have taken is an online cross-training class at Learn It Live. It was a great workout! The instructor was very clear and visually made sure we saw the movements from different angles. She also took the time to check on the participants and respond to each of us as we asked questions and made comments. As a result, I was able to keep up with the class. I am looking forward to taking new classes and reviewing the videos of previous classes. I love Learn It Live!”
