Health check for businesses

Why a corporate health check is essential

As an employer, you want your team to remain healthy, energetic and sustainably employable. Yet TNO figures show that one in seven employees suffers from burnout symptoms. A health check for businesses is not a luxury, but a necessity. It helps you spot physical and mental complaints early - before they lead to failure.

Such a check is more than a quick blood pressure reading. It is a full health check which provides insight into such things as heart rate, BMI, cholesterol, mental resilience and lifestyle. This gives your employees concrete tools to improve their health. And as a company you benefit from less absenteeism, higher productivity and more commitment.

So it's a win-win - especially if you choose a partner like Recharge360, which links health to work happiness and vitality.

What exactly does a corporate health check involve?

A medical check, also known as health check or health check called, is a comprehensive health examination that often consists of:

• Measurements (weight, blood pressure, fat percentage)

• Blood test

• Mental health scan

• Lifestyle Questionnaire

• Personal consultation

At Recharge360, we add something extra: energy and focus measurements, and practical advice that fits your work context. Because a general health check must be especially applicable.

Such a health check doesn't have to be clinical or pedantic. It's about insight and inspiration, so that employees themselves are at the helm of their vitality. Take a look at our Recharge Team Challenge - the ideal follow-up after a health check.

The benefits of a health check for businesses

Don't wait for employees to drop out - prevent it. A preventive health check for businesses helps you identify risks early, such as high blood pressure, sleep problems or stress signals. And that is desperately needed: absenteeism due to stress costs companies billions every year.

List the benefits of a health check:

• Less absenteeism: timely intervention prevents long-term failure.

• Higher productivity: fit employees perform better.

• More job satisfaction: attention to health increases engagement.

• Stronger employer brand: you show that you care about your people.

Moreover, a health check fits perfectly with a broader vitality policy. Think of a customized vitality program or tools such as the Recharge Week for more energy and focus. This is how you make vitality tangible and fun.

What can you expect during a general corporate health check?

A general health check - or as some call it, a "MOT inspection at the doctor's office" - varies by provider. At Recharge360, we believe it's all about three things: measuring, understanding and activating.

Specifically, you can expect this:

• Intake interview with a vitality specialist

• Measurements & testing, including cholesterol, heart rate and sleep quality

• Mental health check via validated questionnaires

• Personal reporting with concrete insights

• Action Plan customized (including tips from our 5-day program for more energy)

We make it approachable and personal. No standard reports, but real insights you can do something with - both in the workplace and at home.

Costs and fees: what does a health check cost?

The cost of a general health check depend on the content, the provider and the number of employees. On average, the price is between €100 and €300 per person. If you opt for an extensive health check including coaching and mental screening? Then it can add up to €500.

Good question: is a health check free? Sometimes you can! Many health insurance companies reimburse (part of) the costs from the supplementary insurance. And for companies, investing in prevention yields more than it costs. Especially if you offset it against avoided absenteeism.

Recharge360 likes to think with you about smart packages. From a one-time health check to a complete program - tailored to your team and budget. Check out our prices and packages.

Is a PMO mandatory for your organization?

A health check often falls under the PMO (Preventive Medical Examination). And this is not optional: according to the Occupational Health and Safety Act, as an employer you are obliged to offer this periodically.

The law says, "The employer offers the employee a PMO periodically, tailored to the risks within the work." How often? That depends on the nature of the work. With high physical or mental strain, an annual check is smart - in other cases, once every two to three years is sufficient.

Important: A PMO is not only required by law, it is also a powerful HR tool. You show that you take health seriously. And that pays back double in motivation, loyalty and performance.

From health test to MOT inspection: this is what the GP says

You hear it more and more often: "Just a MOT inspection at the doctor's office do." But what does that really entail? And how is that different from a health check for businesses?

A family doctor often only looks at immediate symptoms: blood pressure, weight, maybe some blood values. Fine if you already suffer from something. But for real prevention, that's not enough. A good health check looks broader: at sleep, stress, nutrition, exercise and mental health.

Moreover, there is often more going on in the workplace than anyone dares to discuss at home. Think of work pressure, emotional strain or energy leaks due to unclear roles. At Recharge360 we make this discussable during a confidential check-up moment. This provides insights beyond what the family doctor can offer in ten minutes.

So: a GP APK is good as a basis. But as an employer, you want to look further. A full health check customized gives your team the boost they deserve - and need.

How often should you offer staff a health check?

It depends on several factors, such as the industry, physical or mental strain, and the age of your employees. In general:

• Once every 2 years is an excellent foundation for most teams

• Once a year Is recommended for high workloads or a lot of sedentary work

• Interim check-ups can be useful after reorganizations, during absenteeism spikes or when the atmosphere has deteriorated

But honestly? There is no one-size-fits-all. The power is in customization and repetition. A one-time health check is like a snapshot in time. Want to make a real impact? Then integrate it into a broader vitality approach, such as a draw up vitality policy Or organizing an annual vitality week.

This is how you create a culture in which health is not a compulsory number, but a natural part of job satisfaction.
