New 'Health and Wellness' category added in BambooHR's Partner Marketplace to improve mental health of customers and their employees.

LINDON, Utah, Nov. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- BambooHR^®, the industry's leading cloud-hosted software provider dedicated to powering the strategic evolution of human resources, today announced a partnership with Nivati, the comprehensive mental health program for the workplace, designed for the whole person.

BambooHR's integration with Nivati will allow business leaders to provide employees with a comprehensive health and wellness platform designed to make them happier, healthier, and more productive. With this seamless integration, BambooHR customers will be able to sync existing employee information and increase employee benefit engagement without the tedium of re-entering any data.

Mental health and wellness benefits are of continually increasing importance to employees, and by extension, their employers. In fact, 82 percent of employers said they have increased their mental health resources recently. However, only 50 percent of employees agreed their employer had added benefits, showing a great disconnect in benefits communication.

To meet this increased demand for mental health benefits and help solve the benefits communication gap, BambooHR's Partner Marketplace has launched a brand new category: Health and Wellness. Nivati's platform will be BambooHR's premier partner in this category, with more to follow.

"We know that emotionally fit employees build the best businesses," said Amelia Wilcox, Founder and CEO of Nivati. "That said, even the best businesses often struggle to communicate their full wellness benefits to employees, significantly deflating the engagement and value of those benefits. Nivati's platform provides a 4:1 ROI with its comprehensive employee mental health benefits, and we are thrilled to make these tools easier to access for BambooHR customers."

"We know that benefits have evolved over the years, and with that, employers are seeking different ways to improve both the physical and mental health of their employees," said Shama Madhvani, director of business development and strategic partnerships, BambooHR. "With the opening of the Health and Wellness category in the BambooHR Marketplace, we hope to empower employers by allowing them to fill key benefit gaps with options that are becoming more widely expected among workforces."

The BambooHR Marketplace includes 120+ applications that integrate with BambooHR. Partners have the opportunity to leverage BambooHR's open APIs to build these integrations and showcase their solutions to over 30,000 BambooHR customers. From hiring and onboarding, people and culture, compensation, benefits, and more, these integrations are designed to give joint customers the ability to streamline their HR experience across the board.

The Nivati listing on the BambooHR Marketplace, as well as all other integrations, can be found here. The new Health and Wellness marketplace category can be found here and will continue to expand as new partnership opportunities become available.
