- Benefits of Corporate & Office Massages
A ping-pong table and ‘Pizza Fridays’ are no longer viewed as great work benefits by the majority of the Australian workforce. “Free beer” isn’t a perk that highlights your company as one of the best places to work – and it’s not an investment that improves your business. A chair massage, however, helps to boost the mood of your employees while providing heaps of unexpected business benefits.
So what are the benefits of work massages? Beyond providing some much-needed time-out for staff, let’s look at the corporate massage benefits for your business.
1. Less Stress
A 2023 study into the State of the Global Workplace found that Australia has the second highest rate of employee stress in the world. A separate study reported that 46% of the Australian workforce say stress and other mental health factors are impacting their work quality.
As employers, it’s important to be aware of the mental and physical toll of stress – from headaches to high blood pressure, anxiety and poor concentration.
One of the benefits of a work massage is that it helps to relieve stress in just 10 minutes. This means your employees can head to work feeling energised, relaxed and focused.
2. More productive employees
How is a chair massage good for productivity? Lowered stress makes a huge difference in the way we work. A workplace massage also boosts employee morale, helping them to feel appreciated in their work. When people feel rewarded and relaxed, they’re better able to deal with their workload and more likely to give their all at work.
4. Fewer sick days
Some of the biggest causes of workplace sick days in Australia are mental health, and migraines and headaches. The flu is the number 1 reason behind sick days down under, with flu-like symptoms being a common indicator of stress.
Corporate massages can contribute to a healthier workforce and therefore, fewer sick days. By reducing stress however you can, employees may be less at risk of the illnesses that cause them to call in sick.
4. More productive employees
Create a workplace environment that people love to be part of. Benefits like a chair massage are good for boosting staff loyalty and morale. Whether you use corporate massages as a reward or incentive (or both!) they’re a great perk to encourage your staff to stick around
5. An improved business reputation
The most talented employees want to work for a business with a good reputation. News spreads fast, and being able to offer genuine perks helps businesses not only retain their best people but make great hires, too.
