February Safety Topic

Wellness programs are employer-sponsored health promotion and disease prevention programs for their employees. Health risks such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and smoking can lead to long term health issues. Poor health habits may increase on-the-job injuries, lower productivity and contribute to a rise in health care costs. Wellness programs such as health screening, exercise classes and smoking cessation programs promote healthy living and may lower workplace injuries and absenteeism. Health risk factors and guidelines for an effective wellness program.
