Looking after your team’s health isn’t just a nice gesture, it’s a smart investment. A well-designed company health care plan can do more than support physical wellbeing; it can boost morale, reduce absenteeism, and even attract top talent.
Whether you’re a small enterprise or a growing organisation, a company health care plan can help your people stay well and your business thrive.
What Is a Company Health Care Plan?
Put simply, a company health care plan is a workplace benefit that helps employees manage the cost of everyday health needs. From dental check-ups to physiotherapy, these plans offer cover for a wide range of routine treatments giving your team peace of mind and financial support.
At WHA Healthcare, we believe people should have access to care when they want it, it shouldn’t depend on payday. Our plans are affordable, simple to use, and designed to make a difference from day one.

Why Offer a Company Health Care Plan?
1. Healthier and Happier Employees
Good health underpins good work. A company health care plan makes it easier for staff to stay on top of minor health issues before they become major problems. This means fewer sick days and more energy at work.
2. Attract and Retain Talent
In a competitive job market, standout benefits can make all the difference. A company health care plan is a practical, appreciated perk that shows you value your team’s wellbeing and that can help you recruit and keep the right people.
3. Support for Everyday Costs
From optician visits to dental appointments everyday healthcare costs can add up. A plan that helps cover these expenses is a real lifeline for employees, especially when living costs are rising.
4. Low-Cost, High-Impact
Unlike private health insurance, a cash plan is refreshingly affordable. You can cover your whole team for a small monthly fee.
What’s Typically Covered?
Most company health care plans include cover for:
- Dental check-ups and treatments
- Eye tests and prescription glasses
- Physiotherapy and chiropractic care
- Specialist consultations
- Diagnostic tests (e.g. X-rays, scans)
- Mental health support
Our plans are built around what real people need – no jargon, no hidden conditions, and no-fuss claims.
What Businesses Say
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), an estimated 33.7 million working days were lost in Great Britain due to work-related ill health and non-fatal injuries in 2023/24. Notably, during this period, 16.4 million days were attributed to stress, depression, or anxiety, and 7.8 million days to musculoskeletal disorders. On average, each affected individual took approximately 21.1 days off for stress-related conditions. These figures highlight the serious impact of workplace health issues – and the importance of proactive support. Introducing a company health care plan can be a practical step for businesses to improve employee wellbeing and reduce long-term absence.
With so many advantages, a company health care plan is a cost-effective way to show your commitment to your workforce.
