“Holistic wellbeing is the key to employee welfare and happiness. Organizations, particularly in new-age sectors such as IT, ITES and e-commerce, see a direct correlation between corporate wellness programs and employee productivity,” says Satish Gidugu, COO, Medi Assist. “Unlike traditional programs and sessions, ChampCamp is an innovative onsite program that uses a combination of games, quizzes and engagement to appeal to young professionals,” he adds.

The need for wellness is equally understood by employees and organizations. A key employee retention strategy for corporates, such activities also promote work-life balance among employees. Ironically, however, budgets allocated towards wellness activities are often under-utilized due to low turnout during wellness events. This is primarily due to their staid program design; youngsters prefer activities that they can engage in with friends and share on social media. ChampCamp addresses this latent need for young professionals to go social with their wellness goals.
