Anaheim, Calif. At the World At Work Total Rewards Conference and Exhibition 2006
(May 8, 2006) - Ceridian (www.myceridian.com), a leader in human resources outsourcing management solutions, announced today that it has begun offering the most comprehensive suite of integrated solutions ever made available to help employers increase employee productivity, reduce absences and enhance the health of their employees.
Ceridian Health and Productivity Management features full and self-service leave administration; an online health and productivity assessment tool; life enhancement wellness coaching; return-to-work management; and disability and disease management. A key differentiator of Ceridian's offering from competing products on the market is that Ceridian helps companies both identify and evaluate the root causes of why their employees are missing work or what major health concerns exist inside their organization. Ceridian then builds customized, long-term solutions to address these issues.
"The ultimate goal of Ceridian Health and Productivity Management is to help companies decrease absenteeism, reduce presenteeism, and lower the risk of people developing or poorly managing their chronic and other health conditions - key factors in increasing health care costs and lost productivity for companies," said Zachary Meyer, senior vice president of LifeWorks Commercial, Ceridian's EAP and work-life division. "We believe that this offering will play a very critical part in curbing the rapidly rising health care costs and declining employee productivity many companies are facing today. Employers will be able to better see what is happening with their employees and provide them with tangible ways to improve and change unhealthy behaviors."
Ceridian Health and Productivity Management can be scaled to companies of all sizes. It is available to Ceridian's base of U.S. HR/Payroll and LifeWorks customers as well as other companies not currently using Ceridian's human resource outsourcing solutions. Pricing is based on employee population size and scope of services purchased. An article from the spring edition of Ceridian's customer publication, Ceridian Solutions, http://www.ceridian.com/myceridian/article/1,2481,13707-61381,00.html provides additional information about the health and productivity challenges U.S. companies are facing today.
