Program Management Plan Evaluation Report
The health and well program conducted on the IHBC campus consists of different activities like a stress reduction program for the employee, nutrition education, Health screening and exercise with some outdoor games. These are the activities that are done under this program because the employees face problems like leaveism, and presentism and also there was some stress that was
because of the workload therefore conduction of the program will take place.
The effective methods for the specific stages are set so that there will be proper monitoring of the health of employees and this is also important for the effectiveness of the program in sustaining management and employees support is needed in revising the program and also the implementation of the program. The information that is communicated to the stakeholder that there will be proper motivation and also, they will make to understand the objective of the program. That is what the IHBC campus wants from them.
There is a baseline and matrix for the employers that was decided when there was the rollout of the program and which will vary according to the activities that will be conducted. For example, the participation rate of the employees, health care reduction, and how they are now dealing with the work at the workplace (Ammendolia, et al.,2016). And there is also the management of ROI (Return
on Investment). These are some criteria and the matrix of the employees on which there is continuous and effective evaluation will be done so that the objective of the program will be successful.
