The Zen Of Sports And Wellness
Human Capital
|January 2018
That every organisation must take the first step in providing the right environment for its employees is only natural, while at the same time, it must also ensure their well-being by providing the requisite hygiene, the right infrastructure, privileges towards health & wellness, recognition programmes and growth prospects.
‘Customer first' is perhaps as old a term as the first and the oldest workplace on planet Earth, but organisations, very often forget that their employees are their customers 'first,' and that it is in their wellbeing that the wellbeing of the organisation lies. That every organisation must take the first step in providing the right environment for its employees is only natural, while at the same time, it must also ensure their well-being by providing the requisite hygiene, the right infrastructure, privileges towards health & wellness, recognition programmes and growth prospects. An ideal workplace is one which fosters healthy workplace policies and promotes healthy lifestyles by encouraging participation in sports activities.
High levels of competitiveness have indeed taken a toll on the lives of employees the world over. Long working hours, junk food, impossible deadlines, high levels of stress, and no physical exercise invariably lead to diminished attendance and poor health patterns resulting in low levels of productivity; which in fact, is the cause for great concern. This results in frustration among employees which they give vent to on the members of their families, thus leading to a miserable situation.

An Aggrieved Woman?
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition And Redressal) Act, 2013 has mandated that it is illegal to sexually harass women, working or otherwise, at the workplace. However, it certainly is strange that the law did not feel the need to include men, and, also did not clearly demarcate the boundaries of liability for the employer.
