The ROI of Workplace Wellness

The why of workplace wellness.

HR professionals are often asked to justify wellness spending. Let’s breaks down how comprehensive wellness programs like Compwell360 deliver measurable returns, from reduced absenteeism to higher retention, and why VOI (Value of Investment) matters just as much as ROI.

The Real ROI of Workplace Wellness: Why It’s More Than Just a Perk

For many HR leaders, investing in wellness can feel like a balancing act, between budget constraints and the pressure to deliver results. But here’s the truth: comprehensive wellness programs don’t just support your people, they support your bottom line.

According to research, every $1 invested in employee wellness yields up to $5.81 in savings through reduced absenteeism, improved engagement, and lower turnover.

But it’s not just about ROI, it’s about VOI (Value of Investment).

Think higher morale. Better performance. A stronger culture. When employees feel supported mentally, physically, and emotionally, they show up as their best selves, and that’s something no spreadsheet can fully capture.

Compwell360 was built with this in mind. Our platform provides everything in one place , from 24/7 EAP and wellbeing check-ins, to telehealth, injury management, and fitness sessions, making it easy for HR leaders to drive outcomes and show value.
