Abstract:
"The foundation of Integrated Health Services is the relentless pursuit of value. Our fundamental purpose is to help IBM win in the marketplace through the health and productivity of our workforce." ---Martín Sepúlveda
Martín Sepúlveda, Vice President of Integrated Health Services at IBM, had played a central role in establishing IHS as a vital and ongoing contributor to the corporation's success. IBM's IHS organization, as it had come to be known in 2008, was a global team of approximately 250 occupational medicine, industrial hygiene, safety, health benefits and wellness professionals responsible for ensuring the health and well-being of IBM's over 400,000 employees worldwide. This case, set in 2011, highlights the many challenges and his team faced in developing strategies and approaches to creating a culture of health within IBM, and maintain its commitment to the well-being of every employee.
