One of the best ways you can help your employees to improve their health and reduce healthcare costs is to help them quit tobacco. The cost of employee tobacco use can be staggering – smoking drives high healthcare claims, lost productivity, increased disability, and greater worker’s compensation claims.
Not only that, but the majority want to quit! In 2011, 52% of smokers made a quit attempt for more than one day, according to the CDC. Unfortunately, most smokers are ill-prepared and do not have the support they need to successfully quit the habit for good. (Learn more about relapse.)
breatheBetter™ is a complete tobacco solution for employers that represents the latest in tobacco cessation research. The program is tailored to each individual’s own tobacco use and history, their previous quit attempts, and the barriers that have blocked their success in quitting tobacco. breatheBetter™ includes access to our:
- Expert Team: You’ll receive a designated Account Manager and help as needed from additional smoking cessation professionals.
- Web-Based Program: This highly personalized tool is available as a standalone solution or integrated into beBetter’s full wellness solution. (See features)
