FORMING RECOMMENDATIONS USING CORRELATIONS BETWEEN WELLNESS AND PRODUCTIVITY

摘要

A method, system, and computer program product for computer-aided administration of wellness programs. Processing commences upon collecting first observations based on direct or indirect productivity measurements, then collecting second observations pertaining based on direct or indirect employee wellness measurements. Correlations between the first observations and the second observations are made, and based on the correlations, recommendations are formed. Recommendations can be emitted to an employee or to a program manager. The employee productivity measurements comprise working hours per time period, absentee hours per time period, units produced over a time period, revenue per employee, profit per employee, revenue per work hour, and/or profit per work hour. The employee wellness measurements comprise an assessment of a number of hours of exercise per time period, a number of steps taken per time period, a nutrition intake per time period, a body characteristic, and/or a quantity of caffeine-fortified beverages consumed per time period.
