Healthier employees, healthier business  

2 billion people worldwide are deficient in key vitamins and minerals. 

Your brain can’t function properly if your body doesn’t, so how can your employees be doing their best work and growing your business to its maximum potential if they’re not looking after themselves? 

Investing in your employees to build an engaged team isn’t limited to flexible working and extra holidays. As the saying goes, health is wealth. Especially in this case, for you and your employees.  

We’ve partnered with YorkTest, the UK’s number one food intolerance and allergy test provider to set you up with a cost-effective; yet one of the most important, potentially life-changing benefits you can offer your employees. Tercus HR clients also get a hefty exclusive discount too. Result.

The demand already stands 

Fatigue, IBS symptoms and nausea are all common workplace sicknesses. Did you know, these are also common food intolerance and deficiency symptoms? These symptoms can reduce productivity and energy, increasing absenteeism levels.  

Individuals are taking more responsibility for their health, seeking services outside of the healthcare system to keep track of their health markers. Why not take the bull by the horns and amaze your employees with something to boost their quality of life – in and out of the office? 

For over 40 years, YorkTest has offered market-leading food intolerance and allergy tests. They offer a range of health tests, including liver function, cholesterol, diabetes, menopause, stress, inflammation, iron deficiency, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and a thyroid test too. It gives a good, holistic overview of where your body is at so that you can take action. 

How it all works 

It goes a bit like this: you get in touch with us at Tercus HR and we’ll provide you with our unique discount code to apply on the YorkTest website. Coming through us means that our clients get an exclusive discount just for being our customer. It’s nothing but convenient.  

Speaking from personal experience, the test is quick and simple. My results revealed that I should avoid the copious amounts of eggs I used to eat (which apparently I’m intolerant of – who knew?). Since then, I’ve felt like I have much more energy and don’t feel so sluggish or bloated. I really feel better for it – will you? 

You’re provided with a report so that you can take the results to your GP to discuss further meaning that you can get to the root of any mysterious symptoms that you used to brush under the carpet. Imagine that as standard? You might start to notice higher energy levels and an overall better mood amongst your team. 

The different types of tests 

YorkTest offers multiple kinds of tests, with all the results broken down and scored using NHS measurements. 

Their brand-new Annual Health Test assesses 39 different health markers, including cholesterol, diabetes, vitamin D, vitamin B12, folate, liver function, iron deficiency, inflammation, and a full blood count. This new service couldn’t be simpler; they can send a nurse to your office to help your team do their tests on a day that suits you, or your employees can do it themselves. 

They also offer a Food Intolerance and Allergy Test bundle for those wanting to understand what their body should or shouldn’t be exposed to. 

Whether you’re wanting to determine what it is in the office that sets you off sneezing or help your workforce get to the bottom of why they’re always tired (no matter how much they rest), YorkTest is a great place to start putting wellbeing at the forefront.
