What is Corporate Wellness? Corporate wellness programs are designed to nurture wellness in workers, regardless of the work environment. Corporate Wellness programs could be found in factories, corporate offices, large corporations, and small corporations alike.
The idea for these Corporate Wellness programs stemmed from several different experiences, decades ago. Not only did companies want to reduce healthcare expenses they were compensating for employees, but many forward thinking companies wanted to make the work space a more inviting and relaxing environment for their employees as well. Corporate Wellness programs have evolved from offering exercise equipment on site for staff members to utilize, to offering heart healthy choices in the cafeteria, to even having available, a real individuals to talk with about healthcare needs.
D P-1 / 0 9
None of these things are a substitute for routine medical checkups, but Corporate Wellness programs are designed to make medical treatment and medication for employees less needed.
Why is Corporate Wellness important? Studies have shown that nearly 50% of an organization’s profits are consumed by employee health care costs and a ‘high risk’ employee can cost an organization almost $3,000 more per year than their ‘low risk’ colleagues. In addition, ‘high risk’ employees are shown to be 18% less productive, which adds up to 7 hours per week or 2 months per year in lost productivity.

While changing behavior is solely on employees, employers have a tremendous opportunity to help their employees see the value of adopting healthier behaviors so that they can live healthier lives.

Improved disease management
State of health and wellness in India The World Health Organization report entitled “Preventing Chronic Diseases, a vital investment” points out that at the moment four out of five chronic disease related deaths happen in the low and middle income countries. It also highlights the fact that people in these countries tend to develop the chronic diseases at younger ages and suffer for a longer period and die sooner in comparison with their counterparts from the developed world.
The role of the private sector in India in prevention of chronic diseases is of paramount importance at this moment. India’s total health care expenses as % of its GDP is much lower than the world average of around 9%. In a country like India, the two fundamental aspects of a household’s consumption associated with chronic diseases are: • Direct spending on availing treatment on one hand and on goods like alcohol and tobacco on the other, which are primarily responsible for poor health.
• Ability to keep consumption levels constant in the face of “health shocks” from disease.

Health and Wellness trends in India 2015 Increasing health consciousness drives growth in health and wellness beverages: HW beverages continued to ride on the growing wave of health consciousness that manifested itself over the review period. Health consciousness and awareness among consumers was driven further by manufacturers’ marketing campaigns and increased availability of HW beverages in retail stores. Consumer lifestyles and changing attitudes remain the key contributors
With fast-paced lifestyles, consumers started to rely more on dietary supplements to meet daily nutritional requirements. This trend also encouraged consumers to seek out health and wellness beverages. Growing health consciousness was also reflected in the increased preference for exercising, yoga and gyms over the last few years of the 2009-2014 review period.
D P-1 / 1 3
Multinationals maintain lead in health and wellness beverages
Multinationals especially GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare, Coca-Cola India and PepsiCo India Holdings continued to have a strong foothold in health and wellness beverages due to their long-established presence. However, domestic companies including Dabur India and Parle Bisleri Ltd started to expand their HW portfolio and gave some competition to multinationals over the review period.
Traditional retail remains dominant while modern retail continues to expand Modern retailers’ contribution increases further while traditional grocers remain the dominant channel mainly for fortified/ functional hot drinks. In addition, modern retail stores such as supermarkets and hypermarkets, which are frequented more by urban consumers, started to give more shelf space to health and wellness products. Health and wellness value sales are likely to grow further
Rising disposable incomes and changed and changing consumer outlooks will play an important role in driving the growth of health and wellness products over the forecast period. The increased acceptance of health and wellness products will drive manufacturers to introduce new products and also expand distribution smaller cities and towns.

Framework for corporate wellness programs Based on an analysis of organizational experience in designing & implementing employee wellness programmes across various countries, preventing chronic disease requires a strategy that starts with gold standards for structuring and measuring success. There are four elements in this strategy: Leadership, Culture, People and Process

How to have an effective wellness program Employees need to know the program exists: A lot of the employees don’t know if there is a wellness program running in the company or not. A recent RAND Corporation study found that while 85 percent of U.S. employers with 1,000 employees or more offered some form of wellness program, only 60 percent of employees at these companies were even aware that the program existed. Furthermore, of this 60 percent who knew that a wellness program was an option, only 40 percent actually participated in it.
Motivate with carrots, not sticks:
When it comes to wellness programs, people prefer positive incentives. The analogy of carrots and sticks is used frequently to describe this phenomenon: While some employers motivate with incentives (i.e., the dangling carrot), other wellness initiatives motivate with the stick, and penalize employees for failing to live up to certain health requirements. •
Institute policies that reward employees for participating in healthy behaviors, like exercising and not smoking
•
Reframe your wellness initiatives so that they are there to help your employees foster good behaviors, rather than punishing them for bad ones
•
Create programs to help employees who may be struggling with implementing these healthy behaviors, such as one to help your workers quit smoking
DP- 1/ 2 0
Make sure the wellness programs does not shift the cost onto workers, instead of “saving” money: Employees hate it, and punishing employees for poor health habits is less than effective. While it may seem like it’s saving you money, the reality is that many of these types of wellness programs are simply shifting the cost from the employer to the employee. • • •
Focus on offering programs to help your employees become healthier—rather than simply charging for unhealthy behaviors Work with your employees to help them develop healthy habits
Don’t just shift the healthcare costs onto your employees; it’s not only unfair, it can also be discriminatory.
Do not just focus on physical wellbeing in the wellness programs:
Wellness is so much more than just the physical. Unfortunately, many wellness programs seem focused on physical health alone. Depression and stress have huge effects on the overall wellness of employees, and can hurt productivity and employee output as well, costing a business money. •
Focus on wellbeing beyond the physical—it can lead to happier, healthier employees
•
Include access to counseling services, should your employees be suffering from emotional upheaval, stress, or a mental illness such as depression. Wellness is about more than weight—so approach healthy weight loss as a positive side effect, rather than the main goal
D P-1 / 2 1

Consider offering your employees access to relaxation tools, such as meditation or yoga classes—maybe partner with a local studio, or bring in a yoga instructor for weekly lunchtime yoga sessions in the office.

Brainstorming about the brand name: After a couple of brainstorming to find insights about the brand and come up with a brand name, there are a few highlighted words and sentences which were taken forward as design cues and direction for naming the brand.
Brand Name Propositions Awell
Hale
The name awell is invented keeping in mind complete wellness in all dimensions. Awell is derived from all well, or when we informally converse we often ask “all well?� So taking that perspective into play and also working with the lines of the brand focusing on a wholesome wellness in all levels awell was created.
The name hale is the Old English version of healthy, and the Scottish and northern also English version of whole. The world hale was proposed also keeping in mind the same brand ideologies where they talk about wholesome health and well being.
Nudge
D P-1 / 2 5
The name nudge is proposed keeping in mind how the brand works in small changes in lifestyle to prevent and tackle most of the health issues and problem. It also focuses on giving a direction, thus using it in a way to direct the users to a better and a healthy living.

Understanding a nudge To understand what a nudge actually is and it context to its surroundings I did some research on Nudge Theory, Nudge theory (or Nudge) is a concept in behavioral science, political theory and economics which argues that positive reinforcement and indirect suggestions to try to achieve non-forced compliance can influence the motives, incentives and decision making of groups and individuals, at least as effectively – if not more effectively – than direct instruction, legislation, or enforcement.
D P-1 / 3 1
“A nudge, as we will use the term, is any aspect of the choice architecture that alters people’s behavior in a predictable way without forbidding any options or significantly changing their economic incentives. To count as a mere nudge, the intervention must be easy and cheap to avoid. Nudges are not mandates. Putting fruit at eye level counts as a nudge. Banning junk food does not.”

The circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning. It represents the notions of totality, wholeness, original perfection, the Self, the infinite, eternity, timelessness, all cyclic movement.
Because of the innate harmony associated with the shape, circles are easy to use as a background pattern. They create a sense of flow and calmness. Circular backgrounds can also help bring focus to the elements they surround, such as an icon that lives within a circle.

Alternative Configuration of the logo There are times when the logo type cannot be used on images due to visibility issues or space constraints so an alternate type symbol can be used for such cases.

These type variations can be used if there are any such issues arise.

Learning This Design Project-1 had 6 weeks of great learning and experience. This project gave me an up close knowledge about how a brand works like and how every little thing in the brand’s identity reflects the brand’s image and its communication. Another thing that I learned is the importance of conceptualization and how a simple idea can actually differentiate the brand from its counterparts. The visual representation needs to be cohesive to the brand vocabulary and image. This Design Project also opened my eyes to the present lifestyles of corporate workers and how it is unhealthy in near future. I learnt some basic health tips which I would also like to inculcate in my everyday chores.

This Design Project requires a lot more refinement when compared to its final outcomes and the user test is yet to be conducted, so I would like to continue to refine the work to completion
