The Healthy Workplace Nudge by Rex Miller, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Organizations and employees now spend an average of $18, 000 per year per employee for health costs, a 61% increase in 10 years. These are direct costs, but the hidden costs of time out of the office, distraction, disengagement, and turnover far exceed the direct costs. HEALTHY BUILDINGS, HEALTHY CULTURES explains the findings of research on 100 large organizations that have tackled the problems of employees health costs and disengagement in three fresh ways: 1. Healthy Buildings; 2. Behavioral economics to nudge healthy employee behavior (as an approach to design and policy); 3. Healthy Culture. In addition to proving highly effective, these approaches represent a fraction of the cost sunk into traditional wellness and engagement programs. The book explains how to create a workplace that is good for people, releases them to what they do best and enjoy most, and produces great and profitable work. The primary audience is the myriad of professionals who develop, design, build, and outfit workplace environments to improve employee health and wellbeing. The International Well-Building Standard, created by Delos, is a primary catalyst to increase interest and book sales. The secondary audience is building owners, executives, and commercial office tenants who now have a process for providing consistently healthy buildings and influence workplace behavior. | The Healthy Workplace Nudge by Rex Miller, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
