Pepsi Co empowers their employees to be healthy
PepsiCo has taken a unique approach to provide their employees with an online tool to help them get healthier. In September 2004, PepsiCo launched a new wellness benefit for all of their employees and their families. The program is called HealthRoads, and it partners with WedMD and other selected companies.HealthRoads provides information, resources and tools (as well as incentives) to encourage PepsiCo's employees (and their families) to live healthier lifestyles. While the program was initially launched only in the United States HealthRoads has now been rolled out to PepsiCo's global locations. Employees can access to the program by registering online.They set up a username and password in order to use the services. They then complete a Personal Health Assessment.This Personal Health Assessment is a confidential questionnaire about current health, lifestyle and family history. Completing the PHA is an important first step because it gives the employee insights about your health and suggests ways they can manage any health risks and enables them to track their progress. There is employee assistance that is offered should there be any difficulties in completing the needed PHA online. Spouses and partners are also encouraged to complete the PHA since the program benefits are extended to them. HealthRoads functions as a trusted, centralized source for health information in other words a health topics library which is a source for condition assessments, consumer information, newsletters, emails and advice. This program also provides access to resources to help employees live life well, including the QuitNet Stop Smoking Program. Included in this are tools to help employees manage their own and their family's health. Health Roads also provides easy and fun ways to take steps toward a healthier lifestyle through fitness and nutrition programs, including America on the Move (PepsiCo's fitness program) and online nutrition programs. PepsiCo is committed to their employee's health and wellness. The development of HealthRoads includes valuable programs, tools and resources to help their employees live a healthy lifestyle and make better health care decisions. They also offer rewards that employees and their family can get.This amounts up to $400 in HealthRoads rewards each year. The rewards are automatically deposited into the employees' Medical Expense Account.
