Did you know that every year, you are entitled to a free company wellness check? It provides a great opportunity for you to see how you’re doing in terms of your cholesterol level, blood pressure, glucose levels, and weight – with the added benefit of voluntary HIV counselling and testing (VCT).
And now, you’ll now also receive a heart health score and report when you do your wellness check. This is very important considering more people around the world die as a result of heart disease than from any other cause. When left undiagnosed and/or unattended, heart disease can cause serious and even fatal events such as a heart attack or stroke.
It’s such a pressing global health concern that Anglo American is turning its attention to helping employees reduce their risk of getting it – which is why we’ll be issuing a heart health score and report with each wellness assessment done.
Additionally, we’ll also give you a lifestyle wellness self-assessment, which you can use to self-check in terms of your lifestyle habits. This will give you a clearer picture of your overall health and help you identify the actions you can take to improve it. That way, you can take better care of your health and reduce the risk of heart disease and other chronic health conditions.
So what are you waiting for – head to the Anglo Clinic on the 6th floor or the assessment room at the Anglo American Gym on the 7th floor and get your free wellness assessment.
To reduce any waiting time, book a slot in advance by emailing clinic.reception@angloamerican.com, cc’ing relief10@angloamerican.com.
Appointments are a maximum of 30 minutes long and slots are available from 07h30 – 15h30, Monday to Friday. Just by getting your assessment done, you’ll be eligible to receive a gift!
