Abstract
In the conditions of a modern metropolis, corporate health programs are becoming especially relevant. They provide employers with the opportunity to effectively manage the risks associated with the health of employees, as well as optimize the costs arising in this area. In addition, such initiatives contribute to increasing employee engagement and productivity. Aim. To assess the awareness and interest of the employer in the creation and implementation of a corporate program aimed at improving the health of employees. Materials and methods. A sociological survey was conducted among 212 employees of the Management Company Industrial and Metallurgical Holding in Moscow to assess the employer’s awareness, commitment and interest in the implementation of corporate programs aimed at improving the health of employees. Statistical processing was carried out using the Statistica 7.0 statistical software package. Results. The awareness study showed that employees have knowledge about the principles of a healthy lifestyle, and also revealed a general tendency of employers to take care of their own health. A study of employers’ interest in implementing corporate initiatives revealed key aspects that encourage them to follow the principles of a healthy lifestyle. In the course of the analysis of the conditions for the creation of health promotion programs, the main approaches used by the company to maintain and improve the health of employees were identified. Conclusion. Corporate health promotion programs are a comprehensive strategy aimed at improving the physical and psychological condition of the working population. Surveys among employers will identify their views and key priorities, which will help in the development of measures to promote such initiatives at the level of large cities.
