Many companies provide health cover as part of their benefits package, yet few employees fully utilise it, especially for preventive care such as breast cancer screenings. October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, is a perfect opportunity to rethink how corporate health cover can actively support women’s wellness.
The gap between insurance policy and actual healthcare usage often comes down to awareness. Employees may not know what is included, how to access services, or the importance of regular check-ups. By providing clear communication, workshops, and incentives, corporates can encourage their teams to take full advantage of their health benefits.
Minerva Healthcare works with companies to tailor health cover that is both comprehensive and practical.
A proactive approach benefits both employees and businesses. Early detection of breast cancer can save lives and reduce long-term treatment costs. Employees who feel their wellbeing is prioritised are more engaged, productive, and loyal.
Corporate health cover should do more than meet compliance requirements, it should empower employees to stay healthy. This October, make a conscious effort to turn policy into practice. By championing women’s wellness, companies can create a culture that is informed, and supportive, because protecting employee health is the cornerstone of a productive workplace.
