Take care of yourself – utilise the health promotion benefit

Have you spent the Christmas break skiing or jogging? Perhaps you have tried a new health-promoting activity that you would like to continue?

Did you keep last year’s New Year’s resolution about devoting time to your health? Or are you going to give it another try this year? Whatever your situation, the New Year means that you are entitled to a new health promotion benefit.

Here is a reminder about using the health promotion benefit that Lund University offers to all its employees. The benefit reimburses costs for health promotion up to SEK 1,870 per calendar year and can be used for a range of activities.

By regularly participating in health-promoting activities, we can hopefully help to create a workplace in which we thrive and feel well, at the same time as attendance at work increases and occupational injuries decrease. Take the opportunity to devote time to yourself and your health, without it involving any extra cost.

Apply for 2023 by 31 January at the latest

Here is also a reminder to apply no later than 31 January for reimbursement for activities you paid for in 2023. You apply by registering a case in Primula in which you scan/upload your original receipt. 

If your application is received after the deadline, it will be rejected, so don’t wait.

Read more about health promotion benefit and how to apply.

Have you already used the entire health promotion benefit for 2023?

Have you already utilised the entire benefit, but purchased more health-promoting activities in November and December 2023?

Don’t despair! Purchases of health-promoting activities in November and December 2023 can be reimbursed through the 2024 benefit. You apply in the usual way, but in the message box you state that it relates to health promotion reimbursement for 2024. 

Always submit your application as soon as you have reached the maximum amount for reimbursement or on an ongoing basis during the year if, for example, you have paid for several different activities. If you do this, you will receive the reimbursement sooner.
