# The Wellbeing Year

> Two full screening days, two half-day resets, and a monthly session in between. Twelve months of measured wellbeing rather than a yoga class in May.

Package N-02 from Offsyte, corporate recreation in the UAE · [Annual Programmes](https://offsyte.ae/catalog/annual-engagement-programmes/) · Web page: https://offsyte.ae/packages/the-wellbeing-year/

- **Duration:** 12 months
- **Ideal start time:** January or September — the two months a workforce will actually start something
- **Departure window:** Any month; the calendar is built around the client's year
- **Group size:** 30 min — 150 max
- **Emirate / venue:** The client's own premises by default; hotel wellness floor where space does not allow
- **Season:** Year-round. Fully indoor throughout.
- **Booking lead time:** 45 days to programme start

## Price per person, excluding 5% VAT

| Group size | Per person | Billed for at least |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| 30–59 people | AED 2,500 | 50 people |
| 60–119 people | AED 2,200 | — |
| 120+ people | AED 1,980 | — |

A group smaller than a band's "billed for at least" figure is still served, and is invoiced for that many people.
Where a larger band costs less in total, it is quoted instead: groups of 53–59 are billed as 60 people at the rate for 60–119 people; groups of 109–119 are billed as 120 people at the rate for 120+ people.

Payment: 50% advance on signature. 100% cleared 3 working days before the event. Numbers lock 7 days prior.

## Why this is not the retail version

The market alternative is a **corporate wellness provider at AED 1,200 a session** — a yoga class, a talk, a Wellbeing Week in May. Companies buy a lot of this and almost none of it changes anything, for one reason: **there is no measurement, so there is nothing to improve and nothing to report.**

**The month-7 re-screen is the entire product.** Same measures, same people, six months apart. It is the only thing in this catalog — and close to the only thing in this market — that can tell an HR director whether their wellbeing spend moved a number. Everything else is an activity.

**The monthly touchpoints are what make the re-screen worth doing.** Four sessions a year is four good days. A 60-minute session every month, at the office, on one topic, is the thing that sits between them and makes the second screening different from the first. **They are also the cheapest component and the first thing a client will try to cut** — cutting them turns this back into four days with a measurement attached to no intervention.

**Against F-03 The Reset at AED 660 a day:** four F-03s bought separately is AED 2,640 and gets you four good days, no monthly contact, and no comparison between them. This is AED 2,200, it includes eight extra sessions, and it produces a measured result. **It is the one programme in this catalog that is genuinely better value than buying its parts** — because the half-day format and the office delivery take real cost out.

**Sell it to a company with a rising insurance premium, not to one that wants a nice day.** The buyer is whoever signs the medical renewal.

## Timeline

- **Month** — What happens
- **Month 0** — Programme design with HR. What the insurance data and the absence numbers actually show
- **Month 1** — Full day — baseline. Health screening for everyone, movement, breathwork, massage, nutrition. Every attendee gets a private printed result card
- **Months 2–3** — Monthly touchpoint — a 60-minute session at the office. Sleep, posture, stress, one topic each
- **Month 3** — Quarterly report — anonymised group-level baseline to the HR lead
- **Month 4** — Half day — reset. Movement, breathwork, massage. No screening
- **Months 5–6** — Monthly touchpoints
- **Month 6** — Quarterly report
- **Month 7** — Full day — the re-screen. Same measures as month 1, and this is the one that proves whether anything changed
- **Months 8–9** — Monthly touchpoints
- **Month 9** — Quarterly report with measured year-on-year movement
- **Month 10** — Half day — reset
- **Months 11–12** — Monthly touchpoints
