Concentrating On A Healthy Workforce
The benefits of a healthy workforce are obvious – keeping health care costs in check, reducing work absences, achieving greater productivity and, above all, helping employees feel a greater sense of well-being.
Our comprehensive health care strategy focuses on providing access to quality and affordable care, providing the resources employees need to understand today’s complex issues and promoting wellness in the workplace.
Health Management
We are committed to helping employees better manage their health by:
- Offering all of our workers and their families an affordable health care plan with comprehensive coverage.
- Using incentives that encourage employees to get annual biometric screenings that can flag potential health issues.
- Providing flu shots at no cost as a way to combat influenza and the common cold.
- Sponsoring a managed care program for chronic health conditions where employees receive guidance and recommendations on care options from a nurse.
- Offering proactive programs like smoking cessation and personalized health coaching.
- Making available a 24-hour nurse hotline for quick answers to common medical questions.
Healthy Lifestyle
A key part of managing health care costs is helping our employees lead healthy lifestyles. That’s why we have established independently managed health resource centers at our major campuses. These centers feature:
- Nurses who administer allergy shots, perform basic screenings, and provide personal health coaching and nutritional education.
- Access to materials on a variety of health issues through a current resource library.
- Regular lunch-and-learn sessions led by nurses or other experts on timely health-related issues.
- A lactation room for nursing mothers.
We also offer onsite fitness centers staffed with personal trainers and a variety of healthy food choices in our cafeterias.
