Happy employees can seem like an aspiration. We are in an employee-focused market: between extravagant office perks and rating tools like Glassdoor, employees have high expectations and are armed with information about employers before they even submit an application.

All of us at GiftCard Partners wish you and your loved ones a very happy holiday season and look forward to growing with you in 2018.

Every new year brings renewed motivation to live healthier, but motivation alone rarely lasts. Research shows that while nearly 48% of adults set wellness goals in January, only around 20% stay on track by mid-year. For many, it’s not the lack of good intentions but the absence of tangible support and encouragement that makes the difference.

Popularity of workplace wellness programs is on the rise. Companies are encouraging healthy behaviors both in and out of the office to protect employees and customers from illness, and also as a way to reduce health care cost over time.

Preventing diabetes among your workforce may help raise your profit margins and decrease the absentee rates among your employees. Implementing a wellness program centered around diabetes prevention and care is a great way to engage employees in their own health and wellness.
