Infographic: corporate wellness buzzword or sensible investment?

No, really, what is corporate wellness? "Health at the workplace" - in good German - or wellness at work describes "all activities, guidelines and grants that lead to healthier behavior of the workforce." According to this definition, wearing a helmet at a construction site would also be a wellbeing measure.
