WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS ROOM 6 Can Health Insurance Improve Employee Engagement?

by Harken Health

Employers report that healthy employees are engaged and productive employees. While 52% of small businesses offer health insurance to employees and consider it an important component to a healthy workforce, overall wellness is sometimes overlooked due to the added expense.

Though 70% of all businesses in the U.S. offer wellness programs for employees, only 22% of small businesses do. These businesses are turning to prevention and care to combat the rising costs of health care. New and progressive health insurance plans take a holistic approach, providing employers with programs centered around primary care which promote health and wellness, ultimately creating healthier and more engaged employees, while keeping long-term costs down.

Hear directly from Marcus Robinson, of Harken Health, on the importance of primary care and wellness in your overall employee benefits package by offering insurance that provides access to quality primary care at no additional costs to employees.

Who says your desk phone has to be at your desk?

Introducing One Talk.SM One number. Multiple devices.

T:10”

Now customers can find you wherever you work. One Talk is a single solution that can integrate your desk phone and smartphone on one number, and ring at the same time so you won’t miss a call.* With over 25 features, it lets you seamlessly move calls between phones, redirect callers when you can’t answer,* and helps your team work as one to ensure your customers find the right person. It’s another reason more small businesses choose Verizon.**

*One Talk-capable desk phone must be purchased from Verizon to support some of these features. Activation of the One Talk feature and broadband connection is required. **Results based on an independent research study of 3,942 single-location firms with 1–49 employees using corporate liable wireless service. Telephone interviews were conducted between 3Q2015 and 2Q2016 with the employee most knowledgeable of telecommunications service. © 2016 Verizon.
