Gauntt & Associates Adds HumWare Media Corps Wellness Planner to its Suite of Cost-Effective Solutions That Enable Businesses to Influence Employee Health and Safety

Employees are both a businesses' biggest asset or liability, mostly depending on whether or not they or their family are healthy. Wellness programs in the office encourage health and almost always save the business considerable money. But how does an employer reach the employees family, where lifestyle factors emerge and 80% of benefits are used? A significant step towards the solution can be found in the Wellness Planner, which enables business to extend their quest for employee health to the home.

(PRWEB) January 24, 2005 -- Gauntt & Associates, a risk management firm focusing on helping businesses become proactive in the health and safety of their employees and their families, has added HumWare Media Corporations Wellness Planner to its product line. The Wellness Planner is designed to target the families of the insured employees to ensure health and safety messages get to the people who use 80% of the employees benefits and where lifestyle factors of the employee emerge. The ability to connect with this group is a major coup for businesses everywhere, for this is where the health savings truly materialize.

The Wellness Planner is a Windows-based point-and-click desktop software powered by Healthology, a leading producer of physician-generated health and medical information on the Internet. The health portal features the largest and most distinguished library of original streaming health programs and articles for health information and laymans education. The Wellness Planner enables users to log / track / print all health-related information for individual members of the family.

If only one person in an organization used this tool to understand the health ramifications of excess weight and by practicing better health avoided a heart attack, home-based accident, or workers compensation injury, the return on investment of the retail price of $9.95 would be enormous.

For additional information or a trial download of the Wellness Planner software, please contact Judy Gauntt at 714-893-0389 or 714-334-3982.
