discussion Does Your workplace provide Ozempic to its employees?

[Europe]

According to the Society for Human Resource Management, Ozempic and Wegovy became in demand among employees. As a result, employers began considering whether to cover them.

 

An October survey of 500 employers by health care firm Accolade found that 43 percent of employers plan to cover GLP-1 drugs in 2024—nearly double the share of employers that covered them last fall.

Dr. James Wantuck, associate chief medical officer at Accolade said "With the recent spike in demand surrounding these medications, HR decision-makers feel it will create a better health insurance package overall for employees, as well as boost their mental and physical health long-term," he said, noting that more than two-thirds of companies that added GLP-1 coverage to their health care offerings experienced an increase in enrollment.

 

"For companies who are already offering this medication as part of their benefits, they've also seen higher employee satisfaction as a result," Wantuck added.

I hope not. My boss will have a heart attack any day now and I don't want him to have a way out

[Vespertine]

My workplace has mandated Ozempic for all employees. They sent out a company-wide memo titled DELETE IT FAT when they announced this new policy.

Are people's backs really becoming that damn big where they're requesting it through their jobs? 

 

What happened to…the gym and dieting?

As an expert on the social package, I will say that companies are trying to develop gyms in the office themselves and covering public fitness services is becoming expensive and unprofitable, as well as counseling psychologists.

I've always had a question for the psychologists option. Many employees go to their specialist 5 times a week, just like to talk with your girlie, and companies spend billions of dollars on this.
