Significant Market Trend

A key factor shaping the market growth is the adoption of wearable technology. One of the emerging trends is wearable technology which is used to track an employee's vital data signs related fitness, location, and his/her biofeedback indicating emotions.

Major Market Challenge

The poor engagement level among employees is one of the key challenges hindering market growth. Poor engagement levels and the lack of interest and motivation in employees can pose a significant threat to the market in US, as a lack of motivation can lead to poor outcomes in programs.

The absence of such feedback mechanisms results in employers being unaware of their employees' preferences, resulting in poor outcomes for the program that is implemented. The lack of employee participation is due to the lack of desire to spend time on wellness activities, lack of employer support, work pressure, inconvenient timings, and poor understanding of the purpose and goal of such programs. Hence, such factors can significantly hinder the Market during the forecast period.
