2 Using health tests to promote the well-being of your employees The health of your employees is an important factor in the success of your company. That is why Helsana also offers you health tests at your company as part of the comprehensive health care management Helsana Business Health. Health tests provide a good and especially popular opportunity to promote health care awareness and a healthy lifestyle among your employees. The health of your employees pays off for your company. Health tests in companies are effective The work environment is becoming more and more flexible and challenging for employees. To survive in this climate, companies depend on healthy employees. That is why Helsana also offers health tests at company sites as part of the comprehensive health care management Helsana Business Health. On the one hand, health tests make your employees aware of the importance of their health. After completing the tests, on the other hand, Helsana provides you with an anonymous evaluation of the physical condition of your staff, which allows you to take specific measures with workplace health promotion when necessary. Our health care managers support you in doing so.

3 The health tests from Helsana are administered at your company site directly in cooperation with Motio AG, who specialises in workplace health promotion. Standard test areas of Helsana Helsana offers, standard, health tests in three test areas: Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA): BIA is a method of determining body composition and shows the ratio of fat, bone, muscles and water. The Body Mass Index (BMI) is also calculated. Medimouse back check: The Medimouse back check provides a computer-aided representation of the shape and flexibility of the spinal column. The back length and position of the pelvis are measured without radiation. Hearing test: Employees can use a self-test to test their hearing in a simple, but accurate manner. Once completed, the test results are represented as a graphic.

4 I am grateful to my employer that we could participate in a health test at our company. The results have inspired me to pay more attention to my health. Sascha Callen, employee at a Helsana customer Helsana can also supplement the test areas to your specific needs beyond the three standard test areas, including a fitness test, blood pressure measurement, waist circumference measurement and other tests. Popular with companies and employees The diverse, yet easy to administer health tests are very popular, demonstrated by our initial experiences with customers. Numerous comments from HR managers and their employees show that the health tests in companies increase lasting awareness of health aspects and that employees live healthier lives with a positive effect on the company.
