Abstract |
|
|
| The purpose of the study is to investigate the demographic factors as age, gender, education, ethnicity, experience, and position that affect the participation of employees in wellness programs. The study involves N=307 participants from group of companies in Bahrain to investigate their response towards the employee wellness programs. The study used an adopted and self-constructed scale that involved demographic information of the participants along with the record of their participation in wellness programs. The results indicated that there is positive correlation between level of education and employees’ position in the company while there is a negative correlation between age and years of experiences of employees in the current company. The results of the study rejected the null hypotheses regarding Age, Level of Education, Years of Experience and Position in the company since the results showed that there is correlation between participation of employees in wellbeing programs these variables. While the study accepted the null hypothesis regarding Gender and Ethnicity since these two variables are not correlated to participation of employees in wellbeing programs these variables. |
