Sri Lanka’s leading smart phone health and fitness app ayubo.life signed on as principle wellness partner for the first ever Sri Lanka Corporate Health and Productivity Awards 2018 in order to formulate criteria for promoting healthy choices among corporates
Organised by the Chamber of Young Lankan Entrepreneurs (COYLE) in partnership with the Japan External Trade Organization (JETCO), the event amounts to the first time that the island’s diverse corporate community is being brought together for the sole purpose of raising awareness and encouraging health and productivity management programs at an enterprise level.
“Making the right choices where health and wellness is concerned has not been a priority for most employees in the corporate sector. Our research indicates that 35% of corporate employees have a high BMI with 47% being at risk of obesity. We understand that corporates require access to curative as well as preventive solutions instead of traditional wellness models. This has driven us to serve as principle wellness partners to Sri Lanka’s diverse corporate community. In this manner we hope to create a healthy environment for the entire corporate community,” ayubo.life Chief Operating Officer Dr. Chamila Ariyananda commented.
Understanding that corporates require access to curative and preventive solutions, ayubo.life brings together healthcare and wellness under one comprehensive mobile application. ayubo.life guides corporate employees through a wellness journey that creates knowledge and awareness, thereby enabling the individual to assess their health and wellness status, and empower them to make positive changes.
