Corporate personal training
Prevent absence, recover with care
For the employee who is close to burning out, or who has to build back up after time off. A focused programme at a pace the person can handle, ideally on the advice of the company doctor and embedded in your absence policy.
Recovery rarely happens on its own
Overstrain usually has more than one cause, and rest alone does not fix it. We teach the body to feel again and build energy up step by step, at a pace the employee can handle.
Where the complaint is mainly physical, we work alongside physiotherapy under the same roof. Where the brake sits in tension and worrying, burnout and stress fits better. We explained why movement helps here in why movement helps with burnout.
Well founded and accountable
This programme connects to the duty of care an employer carries. There is a goal, a pace and an end point, and we report what is needed to account for the investment.
If capacity lags behind, we move across to injury recovery or adjust the rhythm. Sleep is often the first dial we turn; we wrote about that in sleep and recovery.
A real example from our practice
An employee was outrunning himself on every front. When his body presented the bill, he thought rest would be enough. We taught him to feel again, in small steps. Not to be back sooner, but to keep it up this time.
Reflection, rhythm and result
At De Werf the 3R philosophy gives structure, for the people who train and recover with us, and with that for the organisation, which can count on clarity and results.
Step 1: Reflection
Together with the employee and, where possible, the company doctor we map out the load.
Step 2: Rhythm
We build capacity up step by step, at a pace that suits the recovery.
Step 3: Result
A durable base, so the complaint or the overload stays away.
Part of your absence policy
The strongest programme takes shape in consultation with the company doctor or occupational health service, embedded in your prevention and absence policy. That way it fits the policy you already have.
What it costs
What a programme costs depends on what is going on: the complaint itself, who is involved and how much intensity is needed. An employee at risk of dropping out needs something different from someone returning to work after three months.
There are two ways to work with De Werf.
- Fixed plan, fixed cost. We map the situation and set out the programme and the amount upfront. You know where you stand before we start.
- Free-to-spend budget. You agree an amount upfront that we use as the situation requires. Each month we report what we have done and what it is delivering. What goes into that report is agreed with the employee.
Which form fits depends on how clear the picture already is. A single employee with a clear complaint suits a fixed plan. A broader absence question is easier to handle with a budget.
3 free trial sessions for HR and the board
Want to know whether this fits your organisation before anything is agreed? Sign up two people, someone from HR and someone from the board, and together you get three free trial sessions. No quote upfront, no obligation afterwards.
That pairing is deliberate: HR sees what it means for absence and employability, while the board experiences a session first hand. After three sessions you know from both sides whether it fits.
For the whole team
Level up with vitality and employability
Is it playing out more widely than one employee? Team training keeps a department or the whole team sharp, with participants who can change each quarter.
Flexible use
Or keep it open with a business subscription
Buy a block of sessions upfront, from ten. One session is a training hour for one to four people, free to spread across the team.
