Wellness programs are starting to become the norm in the work place. It makes sense to spend some money on your employees. It breaks down to every $1 you spend in a wellness program for your employees you get back $3 from insurance, sick days(lack of), moral, etc.

I was reading an article last night and found this statistic, 57% of employers in 2008 with 500 or more employees were provided with a wellness program, up from 49% in 2006. Looks like employers are starting to notice the benefits.

Does your job offer any incentive to workout or wellness program?
