Quick answers

Corporate Wellness FAQ

What does corporate wellness typically cost in Dubai?
Costs vary significantly by programme scope. A lunchtime yoga programme for 50 employees might cost AED 3,000–5,000/month. A full multi-pillar programme (fitness, nutrition, mental health) for 200 employees might be AED 20,000–40,000/month. The playbook includes detailed cost benchmarks by programme type and company size.
Is corporate wellness a legal requirement in the UAE?
Basic health and safety obligations exist under UAE labour law. Formal wellness programmes beyond that are discretionary but are increasingly expected by talent in competitive sectors. The playbook covers the legal landscape and what your obligations are as an employer.
How do I get employees to actually participate?
The biggest mistake companies make is launching programmes without building demand first. The playbook's engagement chapter covers needs assessment surveys, incentive structures, scheduling strategies (not during prayer times, Ramadan sensitivity), and manager champion programmes that drive 70%+ participation.
How do I measure ROI on wellness investment?
Key metrics include absenteeism rates, sick day frequency, employee NPS, retention rate, and self-reported productivity. The playbook includes a 12-month measurement framework and dashboard template you can adapt for your board reporting.
