Employees who have physically demanding jobs or suffer from mobility problems due to sedentary work can be more productive if they have access to specialized physiotherapy to help them maintain physical fitness and reduce pain.
Physiotherapy can help employees to improve their overall health, manage and treat injuries or pain, reduce stress and improve mental wellbeing, which leads to a reduction in absenteeism and can have a positive impact on their work performance.
Offering physiotherapy as an employee benefit shows that the employer cares about the health and well-being of its employees, which can contribute to a positive company culture, increase their satisfaction and loyalty to the company.
With increasing rates of stress and musculoskeletal problems, physiotherapy is becoming a desirable benefit. Promoting health and wellness through physiotherapy can be offered by employers as part of a comprehensive benefits program.
