Vitality and reducing absenteeism: How Lifeguard’s energy programs contribute to healthy organizations

Healthy employees form the foundation of every successful organization. At Lifeguard, we firmly believe that healthy people lead to healthy businesses. But how can you, as an employer, ensure that your employees remain vital and absenteeism is reduced? The answer lies in energy.

Vitality goes beyond just being physically healthy. It also encompasses mental well-being, engagement, motivation, and the energy to face challenges with confidence. Being energetic means that employees not only feel good but are also motivated and productive. Unfortunately, many organizations face high costs due to absenteeism, burnout, and a lack of motivation. That’s why investing in vitality and energy management is a strategic choice that contributes to the success of your business.

Lifeguard believes in energy as a strategy. Unlike vitality, which can sometimes be perceived as passive, energy activates employees both physically and mentally. It ensures they remain sharp, focused, and goal-oriented. Energy literally sets everything in motion – from people to business outcomes.

One of the best ways to boost vitality and reduce absenteeism is by implementing an energy program. At Lifeguard, we specialize in creating customized energy programs. Our approach consists of proven building blocks such as inspiring training sessions, workshops, and targeted coaching. Approximately 80% of our programs consist of these proven effective modules, supplemented with tailored solutions that align perfectly with the specific goals of your organization.

Our programs ensure that employees and leaders receive practical tools to better manage their energy. This directly contributes to improving vitality within the organization and reducing absenteeism. Effective energy management also makes your organization more attractive as an employer.

Based on over 25 years of experience, Lifeguard has developed several example programs that directly contribute to vitality and a significant reduction in absenteeism:

1. Physically and mentally fit

This program teaches employees and leaders how to integrate the fundamentals of energy management into their daily work. The focus is on raising awareness around physical and mental health, enabling employees to proactively and sustainably manage their energy.

2. Mental resilience and focus

Dealing with stress, pressure, and setbacks is crucial for long-term vitality. This program helps employees enhance their mental resilience, enabling them to cope better with challenges and remain healthy and productive over the long term.

3. Staying connected as a team

Team dynamics play a critical role in employee well-being. This program fosters greater connection within teams by offering knowledge, reflection, and practical solutions. Strong teams lead to higher engagement and lower absenteeism.

4. Inspirational and smooth collaboration

Energy within teams is made measurable and translated into targeted actions. As a result, energy is no longer an abstract concept but becomes a strategic tool for improving collaboration and productivity, ultimately leading to reduced absenteeism.

5. Energetic leadership

Leaders are crucial to the energy levels within an organization. In this program, leaders learn how to better manage their own energy and recognize early signs of stress in employees. This contributes to a proactive approach to absenteeism and creates a healthy work environment.

In addition to energy programs, Lifeguard offers consultancy services where we focus on how vitality can be sustainably integrated into your organizational culture. Our specialized consultants assist in creating a safe, inclusive, and energetic work environment, where employees feel valued and heard. This leads to a structural reduction in absenteeism and an increase in productivity.

By utilizing our clear Lifeguard Energy Framework, we bring cohesion and focus to your energy policies, ensuring that energy management is not just an optional practice but a measurable KPI within your organization.

When you invest in energy and vitality, you are proactively choosing to reduce absenteeism. Our programs are not only effective, but they also inspire and activate employees to unlock their full potential. With Lifeguard, you gain more than just a service provider; you bring in positive energy that spreads like a virus, from person to person.
