As a corporate wellness provider, it is our job to run on-site health screenings and corporate wellness programs for all corporate companies in Malaysia. It is a good experience to learn about the company's problems related to employees' health and to help companies solve these problems. More or less, we help companies prevent more serious diseases because prevention is better than cure, right?
One of our team members came across a driving academy company led by an amazing woman who spends her company's budget to provide on-site health screenings for the 46 staff. A big shoutout to her because she also prepares food for the staff and runs health talks or webinars every month to ensure that her staffs are always aware of the importance of taking care of their health.
During the health screening, there was a funny moment when one of her senior employees, a 60-year-old, claimed that he was scared of needles and had never done a health check before. "I'm scared to death and will never do a blood test," shouted the senior employee, showing his frightened face.
Some of the employees teased him by saying that he was strong enough and did not need a health check because he had 15 children and that’s why he is “strong”. He proudly admitted that he was strong in that way. It was such a great moment that during the health screening, everyone was happily talking and engaging with each other by sharing their own stories.
A big applause to the wonderful leader of this driving academy company. She takes care of all the staff as if they were her own family members, always providing extra love by meeting their basic needs such as food and comfortable working space. Now, she is even providing continuous health events and medical checkups for her employees. We can conclude that she is one of the great leaders we have met in 2022.
P/S.: The 60-year-old senior has refused to do a blood test so far, even though it was a free medical checkup provided by the company. We are still waiting for him to visit our laboratory and have his blood test done. Hopefully, he will gather his courage and do the blood test soon.
