Why Participate – It Pays
Statistics show that a properly designed and implemented wellness program will not only decrease absenteeism and enhance employee morale – it’ll improve your bottom line. In fact, you can expect a 3 to 1 return on every dollar you spend on wellness. And within 3 to 6 years, the prediction is an average 348% return on investment. – American Journal of Health Promotion, 2008
Regular exercise 8 times or more per month reduces healthcare costs by 33% by the second year. - Medical Insurance Study, 2007
Dependents account for 70% of overall healthcare costs, making it critical to involve the entire family. - Employee Benefit Journal, 2006
Two options to Choose From
When a company has 10 or more employees sign up for YMCA membership the following options are available.
OPTION 1: Employee or company may choose to pay membership in full for the year or bank draft and get the 10% off. The YMCA will also waive the joining fee for memberships paid on an annual basis.

The YMCA can provide monthly usage reports to employers paying for memberships.
