The platform is designed to motivate employees to make healthier choices and connect with their teams, addressing the growing demand for employee wellness programs.
Erin Markowski, HUSK President & COO, emphasized the importance of employee wellbeing in today's workplace. "As company leaders and human resource managers recognize the evolving needs of their workforce, employee wellbeing is becoming synonymous with organizational wellbeing," Markowski said. "Employers are reprioritizing the benefits they offer and seeking a more holistic wellness approach. HUSK Challenge addresses that need by providing an easy-to-launch platform that helps create a true wellness culture – one that fosters an inclusive, collaborative environment, and inspires healthy behavior. Ultimately, that combination positively impacts employee satisfaction, retention, and the bottom line."
HUSK Challenge offers a variety of challenges focused on physical activity, mindfulness, and nutrition. It features a leaderboard that encourages participation and connects remote, hybrid, and in-person teams through friendly competition. The platform is supported by HUSK for turnkey implementation, with highlights including custom challenges for well-being, diverse movement challenges tailored to every employee's preferred way to move, a log to track healthy living activities and earn points, a real-time leaderboard, newsfeed and team chats for fostering connection, the ability to sync with top fitness devices, compatibility with Apple Health and Google Fit, and reporting tools that provide insights to measure participation and evaluate the program's impact.
Markowski added, "Workplace wellness goes beyond encouraging movement or tracking steps; it’s about ensuring that their employees thrive. HUSK Challenge gives employers the ability to encourage collaborative wellness, helping employees live healthier lives while building a sustainable, high-performing workplace culture with higher productivity, lower absenteeism, and reduced turnover."
