Health promotion strategies of OeSD earn top-tier certification
In a commendable move towards prioritising the health and well-being of its employees, the Austrian company OeSD has implemented a series of initiatives that have earned them the "Operational Health Promotion" quality seal for their website on March 14th.
Among the notable measures taken by OeSD is the establishment of the Niramaya Health Insurance Scheme – Help Desk/Enrolment Centre. This initiative, which began during the 2023-24 period, has significantly enhanced healthcare access and support within the organisation, with 23 Persons with Disabilities enrolled.
The health insurance scheme is a targeted effort to improve healthcare coverage for employees, particularly those with disabilities, reflecting a commitment to inclusive health and well-being measures.
In addition to the insurance scheme, OeSD offers a range of health-focused benefits to its employees. These include regular training on health topics, free vaccinations provided by the in-house company doctor, and free massage services.
These measures, aimed at improving employee health, have been a win-win situation for both the company and its employees. They have not only boosted motivation but also increased personal well-being and employee satisfaction at OeSD.
The pandemic has underscored the importance of personal health in both professional and private life, and OeSD's commitment to employee health has been a part of their corporate culture even before the COVID-19 outbreak. As the pandemic risk decreased, OeSD was able to gradually resume its well-known and valued health measures.
The award, received by OeSD General Director Helmut Lackner, OeSD Human Resources Director Renate Beisteiner, OeSD Works Council Chairman Martin Smit, and OeSD Health Officer Matthias Krutz, is a testament to OeSD's dedication to employee health and well-being.
