Set of Questions

Risk Calculation
After this examination, HR gets an idea about the diseases from which each and every employee is suffering that might affect the employee in the long run. In return, this helps the organization as it decreases the chances of employees falling ill because the health risk assessment helps the organization learn about the health conditions of the employees in advance and they get prepared for it.

Counseling

Healthcare Costs are Reduced
Many organizations provide group health insurance policies to their employees that provide them financial coverage against any unforeseen medical costs. This helps the employees take the unforeseen financial get off of their shoulders. However, the health risk assessment assists the employees so that they can learn about their health conditions and prevent any unforeseen health conditions from happening.
What Should Be Done Before HRA?
An employer should make sure that confidentiality and anonymity are maintained throughout the health risk assessment program. Since the health condition of an employee is a private matter that they would not want to be disclosed.
The employers should analyze as the group level results would help them support the employees in aggregate. In order to increase the credibility of the findings, the employer needs to increase the participation of employees. The more employees will participate, the better results will come out that will eventually ensure meaningful results.
According to these results, the employer will take action for better opportunities for both employees and employers. In order to make your employees believe that there is full confidentiality, more employees need to participate as it will spread a positive vibe around the organization and lighten up the concerns about the anonymity of the process.
Conclusion
Health risk assessment helps the employer understand the health conditions of the employees as well as help the employees understand their state of health. If the HRA is conducted periodically, it will eventually help the employers learn about the company’s progress and also analyze their data that will help them implement an effective wellness program in the company. Hence a comprehensive approach to health and safety management can be achieved in the health risk assessments conducted in the organization every now and then.
