Our Workplace Wellbeing Programs & Services

Wellbeing Checks

This service delivers an assessment of the psychological health of each employee and provides guidance on strategies to improve their overall wellbeing. Our psychologists run wellbeing checks similar to our counselling sessions - our approach is friendly, caring, and focused on providing practical, tailored solutions.

A specific psychometric testing tool is administered to the employee to provide a robust and reliable measure of wellbeing compared to population norms. 

Wellbeing checks help employers across Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Darwin, Hobart, and regional areas. With over 90 locations nationwide, Altius Group offers expert support where it's needed most. By outsourcing wellbeing checks, you can also cover internal gaps such as during maternity leave or staff shortages. Wellbeing checks provide key benefits, including:

  • Supports managers to identify and understand any struggles employees are facing so they can better manage them.
  • Help improve employee engagement and morale.
  • Reduce absenteeism and improve workplace productivity.
  • Supports a reduction in absenteeism.
  • Help your workplace proactively identify and manage psychosocial risks for a safer workplace.

How do wellbeing checks help reduce absenteeism?

Wellbeing programs are interventions put in place by employers to improve the lifestyle choices and health of workers as a way of preventing chronic illness and improving productivity and engagement. A wellbeing program may also target organisational and environmental practices to improve the overall health and safety of the workplace. 

A wellbeing program should be holistic and include the key elements of physical, psychological and social wellbeing. Inclusion needs to be across a variety of mediums including health promotion resources, webinars, face to face presentations and participatory activities such as an activity challenge. 

You can view our wide range of health and wellbeing learning experiences in our latest Altius Group Training brochure.

A successful wellbeing program requires a combination of planning, resource allocation and visible and active leadership involvement.

Wellbeing programs are most successful when an organisation spends time initially on a wellbeing strategy to define the key issues they are looking to address. Resources can include allocation of a person(s) to take ownership of the program and ensure connection across other parts of the business. For example, setting up a committee of wellbeing champions to drive awareness and engagement across the organisation.

Senior leadership involvement is also crucial to a successful program - not just budget sign off, but visible involvement and support.

According to self-reporting in the 2020-21 ABS National Health Survey, over three quarters (78.6%) of Australians had at least one long-term health condition in 2020-21. Nearly half had at least one chronic condition (46.6%). Mental health and behavioural conditions accounted for 20.1%, back problems (15.7%) and Arthritis (12.5%) were the most common chronic conditions.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare – Australia's health 2020: Data Insights reported the key risk factors of chronic disease. These diseases share common lifestyle risk factors that are preventable, such as tobacco smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and excess body weight.

According to results of the Australian Burden of Disease Study, in 2018, a large proportion (31%) of the burden of disease experienced by the population could be prevented by reducing the exposure to modifiable risk factors.

The five risk factors included in the study that caused the most burden included:

  • Tobacco use
  • Overweight (including obesity)
  • All dietary risks (see below)
  • High blood pressure
  • Alcohol use

Dietary risks from the study include a diet high in processed meat, red meat, sodium and sugar sweetened beverages, as well as a diet low in fish and seafood, fruit, legumes, milk, nuts and seeds, polyunsaturated fats, vegetables, whole grains and cereals.

Research shows an effective workplace health program, implemented following best practice and covering key areas of physical, mental and social health can support employees to optimise their health and improve healthy lifestyle choices.

Working with you to assess your organisational and individual employee health needs, we can develop an evidence based, outcome driven program focusing on behavioural change reducing the impact of lifestyle risk factors.
