T Spiritual World

T Spiritual World Ltd has informed that the Company has conducted its wellness programs at DLF, MckinSey & Company, Sony, Pepsi India, Convergys and Spicejet in the month of September 2007. The Company has steadily established a reputation among the corporate community and created awareness for a healthier corporate lifestyle.

According to a new report by PricewaterhouseCoopers, titled "Working towards Wellness - An Indian Perspective" Healthcare benefits, work-life balance and perks arc increasingly becoming important to companies in India which want to keep employees happy and to attract new talent. Indian Companies are gradually developing comprehensive wellness programs for their employees. The report further adds that India stands to lose on average International $ 200 billion in national Income due to deaths from heart disease, stroke and diabetes from 2005 to 2015. The main causes of these chronic diseases are well established and well known. The most important risk factors are:

- Unhealthy diet and excessive energy intake
- Physical inactivity
- Tobacco use

Working adults spend more time at work - approximately on one-third of their day - than in any other setting - so the workplace is an important place to institute changes in behavior.

A recent report in the Times of India dated September 28, 2007, highlights that executives in their early 30s are suffering heart attacks and a large number of them have frequent chest pain, high blood sugar and high cholesterol levels. Alarmed by the rise in such figures, Ministries of Health & IT are working on a dedicated IT workplace health policy to tackle the menace. A blueprint of India's first dedicated health policy for the BPO sector will be finalized at a national conference in Bangalore by end of October 2007 after discussing with industry partners and the policy is expected be in place by early 2008. According to the Ministry of Health, they have found a tremendously high level of stress, mental disorders, cardio - vascular diseases, divorce rates and daytime sleepiness among call centre employees. Reducing just once health risk increased on the job productivity by 9% and cut absenteeism by 2%. According to latest figures, nearly 5,53,000 people work in India's BPO sector.

The Company has been successful in designing and delivering its wellness Programmes to suit the requirements of the large corporate clients, including several large BPOs & IT Companies - IBM Daksh, WNS Global, vCustomer, Keane, Aricent, TCS & eValueServe.com who want to "Bring Wellness into Work". With a dedicated IT & BPO workplace health policy in place by early 2008, the Company expects that the demand for its wellness products and services will rise even further.
