As part of their Responsible Awareness Program, the event aimed at keeping employees health and also focused on actively boosting their emotional well-being.

All the participants received a free medical check-up for Body Composition Analysis to determine their lifestyle and eating habits, identify symptoms that may indicate hidden health problems and encourage them lead a healthier lifestyle. A dietician and a wellness counselor were present to provide factual information and dispel myths about healthy eating and foods that provide optimal nourishment. Wellness counselor helped participants realize the importance of maintaining work-life balance and how to overcome limiting beliefs and patterns.

Moussa El Hayek, Chief Operating Officer of Al Bustan Centre and Residence, said: “Currently, medical insurance is mandatory for all residents, yet such insurance doesn’t include periodical screening of the emotional health and mental well-being of the individuals. We are diligently looking after our employees’ overall health by raising awareness about potential health issues through regular medical screenings in association with reputable healthcare service providers. The company benefits from improved productivity and reduced absenteeism rates as well as the reputation of having a healthy and happy workplace.”
