Healthy Workforce
3/30/2012
CERC recently signed on as a partner to the MetroHartford Alliance’s Healthy Workforce 2015 campaign. The campaign is an initiative to promote good health among the region’s workforce and reduce healthcare costs for businesses and individuals. A CERC wellness team has been formed to oversee the company’s efforts to become healthier. Nutrition information and exercise programs will be made available to employees and be incorporated into communications such as wellness calendars and bulletin boards and through email blasts and monthly progress updates.
We have already begun including payroll stuffers on health related topics with employee pay stubs. Other plans include formalizing a walking club, implementing a Lunch Well program including healthy pot luck lunches, sharing of healthy recipes and charting and rewarding employee progress/accomplishments.
Spring seems like an appropriate time for us to start our health campaign with the nicer weather and approaching swimsuit season. Wish us well in becoming a healthier workforce and we encourage you to consider such an initiative at your place of work. Here’s to your health!
- Gretchen Deans, CERC, Director of Administration
