By leading an "active" life, you can counteract this and at the same time lay the foundation for more vitality, independence and satisfaction. This not only increases the quality of life, but also brings numerous health benefits.

Reason enough to firmly anchor the topic of health in the working world. And with the help of occupational health management measures, this is becoming more and more successful. From exercise and relaxation programmes to bicycle leasing, there is a wide range of services that are beneficial to health. Of course, more and more companies are also offering fruit baskets and free drinks. But is that a sustainable solution? Probably not.

The reasons for travelling are manifold - there is a suitable hotel for every type of traveller. But the demand for health and wellness offers within the tourism sector is steadily increasing. So-called wellness tourism is a growing component of the hotel industry.
