The Royal Mail Group has won an award after reducing its sickness absence rate by 7% in one year, saving the organisation more than £15 million.

Royal Mail's health and wellbeing programme, which demonstrates the value of each employee’s contribution to the organisation, has earned it the accolade of the Business in the Community (BITC) Example of Excellence in the category Healthy Workplace Award.

Services provided to employees include health screenings, advice on health, nutrition and wellbeing, health events targeted at both men and women, a confidential helpline, face-to-face counselling and an online screening facility.

Adam Bowles, head of corporate responsibility and engagement services at Royal Mail, said: “Winning this award is recognition of the value that we place in our employees. Through working closely with Atos Healthcare, we have delivered a health and wellbeing programme that benefits all our employees while helping us to run our organisation more efficiently.”

Dr Will Cavendish, director of health and wellbeing in the Department of Health and a judge for the Healthy Workplace Award, said: “I congratulate Royal Mail for their achievement as Example of Excellence. They have shown leadership and commitment, and have driven through a programme that is both innovative and replicable, showing real impact to the bottom line and also to the health of their employees.

"The judges were particularly impressed by the scale and significance of their programme, particularly during a time of change and restructuring.”

So you get an award now for bullying people back to work before they are ready

It must be really great to live in a land of make believe that is the corporate world.

Oh would that be the same Department of Health that recently awarded a long contract to Atos to also bully all the sick people claiming Incapacity Benefit,the 2000`s version of the politicians and newspapers single mother`s are all lazy t.wats that we had in the 80`s and early 90`s??
The same Department of Health that encourages local Primary Trust to put GP and other health services out to tender then awards it to Atos?

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? In your dreams matey!

Never seen any of this - "face-to-face counselling" = bullying from managers using the trigger points given them from HR.

RM doesn't value any OPG contribution to the business.

They got this award via the usual Royal Mail method of lying its arse off to anyone prepared to listen.

look who has been in charge :lfo & :cfo , these are sales people - anything to get a deal , even Dave Ward said :lfo is the master of spin and hype , unfortunately RM is a bit more complicated as they don't sell double glazing , time shares , advertising space , subscriptions or stone cladding . New Liebour love these " super managers " too .

RM always knows best and only they arrogantly think they've the answers
