The report Working towards Wellness - An Indian perspective* draws heavily on a study that PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) conducted in conjunction with the World Economic Forum’s Working Towards Wellness initiative, which examined the challenges facing businesses as a consequence of the growing epidemic of chronic disease, which is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide.
The Indian report highlights the findings of the global study conducted by PwC and places the global report in an Indian context. The study conducted globally becomes even more critical for countries such as India since such chronic diseases are increasingly affecting people in developing countries poised for growth.
The report tries to set the context of how such global findings relate to India, and in particular take a look at case studies around the growing Information Technology (IT) and Information Technology enabled services (ITeS) services industry in India. The current report first examines the nature of the problem in India, and then suggests a framework to corporations adopting wellness programmes, geared towards making these initiatives effective.
