Creating a Workplace Wellness Program


Description
With increasing costs of health care, a shrinking workforce, and aging workers, a savvy workplace understands the value in supporting workers to improve their conditioning and to live a fitter lifestyle. This course will give you a framework to build a program from scratch and ways to enhance existing programs.

Objectives
To begin this course, you will consider the benefits of workplace wellness programs. Then, you will learn how to create a wellness committee, outline a wellness program, gather support for it, perform appropriate research (including a needs analysis), design an appropriate package, and get buy-in for it. You will also learn how to implement the wellness program, evaluate how it is doing, and present the results in a tangible manner.
