In today's fast-paced and demanding work environment, employee wellness and health are increasingly demanding attention. The role of vitality and its positive impact on employees, teams and the overall success of an organization requires securing it in organizations. HR seems the obvious party to take up this challenge. This is why we are organizing a roundtable, asking a panel of HR leaders to share their challenges and experiences.
The event will offer an insight into initial results of research on vitality and health implementation issues that exist within companies, followed by an interactive session with renowned HR professionals with experience in workplace wellness.
