Pos Malaysia Shows Off the Brand New FIT Program!
KUALA LUMPUR, 10 June 2024 – Pos Malaysia Berhad ("Pos Malaysia"), the national post and parcel service provider, proudly announces the launch of its latest employee wellbeing initiative, FIT. This comprehensive program is delivered via its employee engagement mobile platform, Kyzense. Developed in collaboration with Naluri, a leading digital health and wellbeing company in Southeast Asia, FIT represents a significant milestone in Pos Malaysia's commitment to employee welfare.
Commitment to Employee Welfare!
Pos Malaysia’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Charles Brewer, reaffirmed the company’s dedication to its workforce, stating, “Pos Malaysia is committed to the health and wellbeing of our 14,000-strong workforce. Having highly motivated, engaged, and safe employees is a key part of our transformation-focused strategy. We ensure this by creating an amazing and safe environment where our incredible teams can flourish, providing a supportive and nurturing work environment that prioritises the physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing of every employee.”
Integrating Engagement and Wellbeing!
Brewer emphasized the importance of integrating employee engagement and wellbeing to create a high-performance environment. “Employee engagement and wellbeing, when brought together, create a high-performance employee environment where the two inform and build on one another. FIT is a comprehensive wellbeing program offering our employees easy and ‘always-on’ access to physical and mental health support. All of our Pos Wiras will have a dedicated channel to connect with healthcare consultants and expert coaches whenever required. This support system is seamlessly accessible through our Kyzense app, providing impactful 24/7 assistance right at their fingertips.”
Building Trust and Connection!
“At Pos Malaysia, our purpose is to build trust and connect lives and businesses for a better tomorrow. As part of that, we are committed to creating a healthy and supportive work environment where our Pos Wiras feel motivated, engaged, and most importantly, safe. By accelerating our investment in our employees’ health and wellbeing, we will see numerous measurable benefits, including higher productivity, improved financials, lower turnover, and fewer safety incidents,” Brewer added.
Partnership with Naluri!
Naluri’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, Azran Osman-Rani, expressed pride in partnering with Pos Malaysia. “We’re honored to partner with Pos Malaysia, a pioneer in digital employee engagement, and integrate Naluri’s predictive and preventive wellbeing features into Kyzense. This partnership helps transform traditional healthcare from reactive ‘sickcare’ to the FIT programme that proactively keeps employees healthy and engaged.”
Addressing Mental Health Risks!
According to reports, approximately 40% of the workforce in Malaysia is at risk of mental health issues, and nearly half are overweight or obese (Source: Aon, "Global Medical Report" Trend Rates Report (2022); Aon Insights; Ginger Report (2021); Relate Malaysia study (2021)). FIT offers employees a comprehensive and holistic approach to wellbeing, empowering them to take charge of their health.
Comprehensive Health Support!
The FIT programme provides easy access to round-the-clock support from certified mental health professionals through secure and confidential consultations via chat, WhatsApp, or phone, all integrated with the Kyzense app. Employees can take validated assessments to measure anxiety, depression, and stress, and connect with multidisciplinary coaches, including psychologists, dieticians, and fitness experts, all within the FIT app. Additionally, a library of educational resources, such as modules, videos, and webinars, assists employees in making informed health choices.
AI-Powered Personalization
Taking a holistic approach with AI-powered personalization, FIT addresses not only physical fitness but also diet, mental wellbeing, and chronic condition management. By leveraging artificial intelligence, FIT tailors care plans specifically to individual needs, allowing for early detection of potential health risks and ensuring employees receive the most relevant support.
Benefits for Employees and Employers!
By using FIT, employees can expect numerous benefits, including improved overall health and a reduced risk of chronic diseases. Ultimately, the program cultivates a supportive and health-focused workplace culture, benefiting both employees and employers alike. Pos Malaysia remains dedicated to nurturing an environment of continuous improvement and wellbeing, ensuring that every employee has the resources and support needed to thrive both personally and professionally.
