    Digital solutions for the development of corporate health programs
    (2023) Aleksandrenko, Hlib; Shevchenko, Maryna
    Introduction. The article examines the relevance and importance of the health status of employees in modern society. Considering the rapid development of digital technologies, the expediency of their use to improve health and well-being at workplaces is being investigated. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to analyze the current state of development of digital technologies for corporate health programs, as well as to present the results of the developed and implemented digital tool for the implementation of the corporate health program. Materials and methods. The research materials are: 1) regulatory and legal support for the regulation of corporate health of employees of enterprises; 2) information resources of foreign companies that use scientific and practical achievements in the field of digital technology development to preserve and strengthen the corporate health of enterprise employees. In the process of carrying out the research, the following scientific methods were used: theoretical generalization (to characterize corporate health programs and digital applications for tracking the individual corporate health of employees); formalization, analysis and synthesis (to build a model of strengthening corporate health); logical generalization of results (formulation of conclusions). Results. One of the modern trends in the field of personnel management (or, as we call it now, human resources or HR) is the implementation of a holistic approach to the well-being of employees. Companies offer innovative programs to ensure financial well-being, mental health, a healthy lifestyle (in particular, nutrition, physical activity), stress management, etc. It has been becoming a part of both the employer's corporate social responsibility and a strategy crafted to ensure the maintenance of a positive HR brand, attract and retain talents, and increase the level of employee engagement as well as efficiency. It has been confirmed by the results of the Deloitte study. The developed and implemented model of the corporate health program, one of the components of which is the use of digital tools in the form of an automated system of interaction, ensured effective communication and feedback with program participants and prompt response to their needs. Automated distribution of information, support, and personalization were carried out thanks to the proposed algorithm and the possibility of customization through the personal account of each program participant. Thus, we were able to provide a personalized approach to each of them. Discussion. The predicted economic efficiency of this program is estimated for the company's management at approximately $51,000 per year. It has been established that strategies, conditions, or activities carried out in the work environment can motivate employees to make changes that will not only have a positive effect on their health and well-being but also allow for increased productivity at the workplace.

    Using a chatbot as a digital tool at the primary health care level
    (2024) Aleksandrenko, Hlib; Shevchenko, Maryna
    Aim: To analyze the feasibility of utilizing a digital tool such as a chatbot at the primary health care level as part of a health program. Materials and Methods: With the involvement of a general practitioner and the use of a digital tool, a chatbot, a three-month health program was conducted for employees of an IT company. The chatbot was used to collect information, monitor the health status of participants and provide personalized health recommendations. To evaluate the program’s effectiveness survey was conducted to compare participants answers before and after using standardized evaluation scales. A questionnaire based on the Evaluation and Management Services Guide was created to collect medical information on the health status of participants before and after the program. Results: After the program, the average total score of participants’ health complaints and symptoms decreased (from 27.1 to 16.1, p=0.019). The average severity of the chief complaint on a scale of 0 to 10 decreased from 5.08 to 2.27, or by 55.3% (p=0.00676). The frequency of individual complaints such as eye pain, decreased concentration, increased fatigue and irritability also dropped. Conclusions: The chatbot enabled the primary care physician to respond promptly to participants’ health complaints. The results demonstrated the potential of chatbots as innovative and accessible digital tools at the primary health care level for providing recommendations, monitoring health, and contacting a primary care physician in a timely manner.
