Control Risks Group, the business risk consultancy and IHI, the international health insurer, have launched bottomLine, a product that aims to allow employers to monitor and measure the impact of health and security measures.
IHI and Control Risks report they have taken over two years to create this product. The bottomLine product allows employers to challenge traditional healthcare and security practices, and then selects tailored remedies for the areas in which they can improve, the firms say. Improvements are measured and quantified, enabling companies to calculate a true return on the investment in their people. The process involves: an audit of the company?s current health and security activities; review and grading against best practice; selection and implementation of improvements; and annual measurement of results.
What they say
Per Bay Jorgenson, Chief Executive of IHI said: “If staff in stressful situations are given more support and protection wherever they are in the world, there is a positive boost to the company?s bottom line. bottomLine is about adding value to your balance sheet by investing in and retaining good people for the benefit of the organisation and its shareholders. When management shows that it puts employee wellbeing high on the agenda, the results are immediate; it is those companies who will be the winners of tomorrow.? Christopher Grose, Director of Control Risks said: ?With unprecedented levels of security concern among employees worldwide, the result is unhappy, stressed, de-motivated people, lost business opportunities and poor performance. bottomLine recognises that if employees and their families feel safe and well feel, they will be motivated and encouraged to produce outstanding results.?
