Rostrum has also enrolled the team onto Health Shield’s reward programme, Health Shield PERKS, which provides deals, cash back offers and discounts on travel, cinema, supermarket, and health and beauty products.
Jason Dunks, Sales Director at Health Shield, said:
‘‘Employee wellbeing is quite simply integral to business productivity and ongoing sustainability. Rostrum is well aware that its people are its most important asset and giving them the immediate-access, personalised and every day health and wellbeing support they need to stay happy, healthy and motivated is top of the agenda. As is the ability for the business to monitor and assess outcomes, ensuring the programme is well used, valued whilst also identifying any problem areas so that support can be provided. Our innovative health plans are designed to keep employees and businesses in the best of health, so it’s the perfect partnership and we’re excited to be able to roll these out to the Rostrum team.”
Aliya Vigor-Robertson, JourneyHR, said:
“We work with Rostrum on HR strategy and solutions. Investing in employee wellbeing has never been so important and we recommended Health Shield as a strategic investment and benefit for Rostrum’s employees. We look forward to hearing the feedback from the Rostrum team as the programme is rolled out and the team engage with all it has to offer.”
