WORKPLACE WELLNESS       PROGRAMMES

Internationally, nationally and locally recognised as good practice and an innovative approach, the AIDC EC wellness management programme objective is to be a preferred partner to large companies for the development, strengthening and sustainability of relevant structures in their supply chain or other affiliated small
and medium enterprises. Organisational health informed by effective wellness management and chronic disease education, management and prevention builds upon a variety of ongoing, coordinated activities and services, adversely affecting organisational development, employee engagement and productivity.  

The AIDC EC Wellness Programme was initiated in 2009 in partnership with the German Development Service (DED). Since its inception, the programme focused on managing HIV&AIDS in the automotive sector. In 2012, it became evident that the automotive sector was faced with health related challenges that were beyond HIV, hence, a holistic wellness programme was initiated in partnership with OEMS (GM, FORD and VW) and NMMU research unit. Since 2009, the programme has reached 26 automotive companies within the Nelson Mandela Bay and 21 farms.
