Corporate and Workplace Wellness in India

Hi All,

I just found this forum and was VERY impressed with the quality of the content and posts.

I have a question for you all. I live in the US and there is a heightened focus on Corporate Wellness here - so much so that there is a bill in front of the Senate which offers upto a USD 200 tax credit/per employee/per year for employers who invest in qualified corporate wellness programs.

This is consistent with the focus on Demand Side Health Economics vs the traditional Supply Side.

Would like to understand from this very qualified group of what your experience is in implementing Health and Wellness Programs in your companies.

Also if you could comment on what you believe is the interest of Corporate-India for such Programs.
