Whether they feel embarrassed to admit there’s a problem, or reluctant to take time off to seek advice, a lot of men don’t get medical help until an issue has become more serious1. The men’s health service connects employees and their families to convenient, discreet support from leading healthcare specialists for a range of issues, including:
- Urology
- Sexual health
- Prostate health
- Common male cancers
- Nutrition, exercise, and fitness
- General health and prevention
Why investing in men’s health support in the workplace matters
The health of your business depends on the health of your people. By giving your male employees a discreet and easy way to access support and guidance at their convenience, you can help keep your workforce healthy. You’ll also help your business achieve cultural and commercial goals by creating an environment of support and a brand that people are proud to work for.
