Discover how Oracle HCM Wellness transforms employee well-being with smartwatch integration. Learn the step-by-step process and business benefits for a healthier, more engaged workforce.
“Health is Wealth” – This proverb holds a lot of importance in current busy schedules. Even organizations get employees actively involved in wellness programs. Despite putting in time and resources, it’s tough to motivate staff. This lack of interest can be due to not knowing enough about the wellness program, thinking there’s not enough time, or being unsure if it works. To tackle this problem, organizations need to communicate better. Using different ways to share information and highlighting the program’s benefits can generate interest. Regular updates and personalized messages can make employees more interested and willing to join in.
To keep employees updated, Oracle has introduced a tool called Oracle HCM Wellness. This
tool encourages employees by monitoring their activities regularly and boosting them to participate in organizational programs.
This Wellness integration can be used to track the employee’s daily fitness activities such as steps walked, calories burned, distance covered, and time spent on fitness activities.
Additionally, Wellness also supports creating Corporate Goals for activities and rewarding them, accordingly, Creating Post\News about future activities, Assessments, Competitions, and Internal Team Goals.
Note: This Wellness integration will not support all the smartwatches available outside the market. The Supported brands are mentioned below:
