【安心工作間】3招企業如何締造健康工作文化 | 3 Ways To Create A Health And Wellness Program At Work

締造健康工作文化已成為西方潮流，不少外國公司都花資源推廣健康工作文化，並打造讓員工安心工的的辦公室環境。

透過優化工作環境，有助減少員工流失、提高工作士氣、讓員工有健康的身體。

締造健康工作文化的重點在於讓同事們積極參與與投入活動，同時讓員工在工作時多點活動及保持靈活性。

以下是締造健康工作文化的3個建議。

營造積極運動的企業文化

健康工作間不止於提供身體鍛煉課程，或工作期間提供生果或健康零食，而是推廣適當小休與身體活動。雇主不需投入太多的資源去推廣，簡單例子如可以鼓勵同事調較鬧鐘，提示自己適時站立工作，或休息一下。

久坐不動一向被認為是增加患心臟病、糖尿病等慢性疾病的風險，同時是增重或患抑鬱症的原兇。適當身體運動才能保持身心健康。

建立「多企」文化

白領花不少時間坐在辦公桌前工作。我們每天平均花9小時坐在電腦面前工作。缺乏運動導致缺乏能量，專注力和生產力，同時讓同事工作時感到疲倦。為了提高同事們的工作效率，可考慮購買Ekobor人工力學升降桌與HÅG Capisco騎馬椅。

Ekobor升降桌符合人體工學設計，有助矯正姿勢及減低疲勞，用家可調整檯的高度，在站立與坐下之間交替工作，提升同事們的活動頻率，並提升專注力及生產力。

HÅG Capisco座椅設計靈感來自於馬鞍，是款動態座椅，充滿靈活性，讓同事們按需要交替不同坐姿。

多「鼓勵」文化

根據正向心理學的研究指出，「多點鼓勵，少些責備」有助推動員工工作士氣，讓同事工作時更感到更快樂，而快樂與健康有著密切的關係。而推動多「鼓勵」文化不需要投入很多資源，簡單例子如可設立「員工分享展示板」分享同事間工作軼事，或鼓勵員工相互間分享發送感謝信或電子郵件。
