In a bid to promote employee engagement and wellbeing initiatives, Mobile and web app developer Vidatec has launched its very own workplace wellbeing platform – engage4. 

engage4 combines employee engagement capabilities with exclusive workplace wellbeing content provided in partnership with Workwise Wellness Solutions. 

The content includes tips on coping with stress and improving overall workplace wellbeing through a range of lifestyle choices, offering HR leaders and employers an opportunity to drive inclusion with easy access for remote workers and all those not desk-bound.

Staying in touch

With the ability to personalise community news feeds, and the option to create groups, employees can also stay connected with each other when away from the office. 

Light touch surveys enable HR and managers to track how employees are feeling at any given time. While to increase employee engagement the app has also been designed to encourage users to recognise colleagues with a ‘high-5’ feature as well as providing the opportunity to earn points and badges all designed to increase positive engagement and behaviour.

As the app launches amid the ongoing Coronavirus outbreak, engage4 is providing up-to-date and relevant workplace wellbeing content specifically to help with internal communication and to ensure employee wellbeing is monitored and supported.

Workplace wellbeing

Greig Johnston, CEO of Vidatec, said: “We believe engage4 can help to make a real difference to people’s lives.  We are proud to be partnering with Workwise Wellness Solutions with their sustainable wellbeing initiatives already benefiting many businesses, schools and local communities across the UK.

“We have developed engage4 to be used as a trusted channel for promoting relevant wellbeing initiatives, tips, best practice and education, all of which is particularly crucial to organisations and businesses right now.

“It is a testing time for businesses and their employees at present as they adjust to new working patterns and locations of work, making employee engagement and especially human connection difficult between teams and colleagues.”

Vidatec is currently offering free use of the platform to organisations for a period while organisations go through a testing time.
