How Does a Corporate Weight Loss Program Work?

Employees spend a lot of time at their jobs, investing a lot of time and energy. Businesses can show their appreciation beyond the paycheck with corporate weight loss programs to help employees enjoy better health and quality of life.

The workplace is a great place to set weight loss goals and adopt healthy habits. Employees gain access to important tools and resources and have a built-in support system and camaraderie to keep them motivated and on track.

At Premier Physicians Weight Loss & Wellness, Dana Trippi, DO, and our team understand the critical importance of weight management, offering corporate weight loss programs focused on helping businesses and their employees reap the benefits of better health. 

Here, learn what a corporate weight loss program entails and how it can benefit your business.

Corporate weight loss program 101

You might think corporate weight loss programs are focused solely on company-wide goals, but that’s not the case. These programs use the same basic framework as an individual weight loss program, with the added benefit of a built-in community that provides support and motivation. 

Like an individual program, a corporate weight loss program starts with an assessment, including basic information about height, weight, body fat, health history, and personal weight loss goals. That data helps us develop a weight loss plan tailored to every individual.

Once you establish your goals, you learn how to achieve them using various tools, including: 

• Weight loss and nutrition education
• Customized meal plans
• Custom exercise recommendations
• One-on-one health coaching
• Weight loss medications when appropriate
• Advice on dietary supplements
• Weight loss surgery screening 

Your program can help you stay focused with options like group weight loss classes, weekly weigh-ins, and corporate weight loss challenges.

Benefits for employees and employers

Corporate weight loss programs benefit employees and employers. For businesses, healthy workers mean less absenteeism and lower medical costs. An on-site workplace program is a perk that boosts employee satisfaction and morale while helping attract talent.

For employees, the benefits also can be significant. Corporate weight loss programs are convenient, providing easily accessible resources that help individuals make the lifestyle and behavioral changes needed to reach their goals.

Corporate weight loss programs boost employees’ long-term health by reducing risks associated with being overweight or obese, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, kidney and liver disease, depression, sleep problems, dementia, and some types of cancer.

Setting and achieving goals with co-workers can build rapport and help reduce workplace stress.
