Health and wellness are at the forefront of today’s public interest. Insurance companies, government agencies and employers are taking notice and looking to promote the overall health of the population. Incorporating this high-profile initiative into the workplace allows employees to use their working hours toward increasing overall health rather than hindering it. It also gives employers the opportunity to increase employee productivity while decreasing overhead costs related to insurance and time off. This session will provide an introduction to health and wellness in the workplace, offer insights, and show practical ways that ergonomics can impact a diverse workforce.
