This August, as we celebrate National Wellness Month, we are excited to highlight our organization’s Journey to Good Health program, designed to support employee well-being.
In partnership with CareATC, this program encourages healthier lifestyles through two main components. First, employees undergo a health screening. If results are within recommended guidelines, they receive a prorated insurance rebate. If results fall outside the healthy range, employees enroll in the Journey to Good Health program, receiving year- long support from a dedicated nutritionist and a re-assessment to track progress.
The second component is our 10,000 daily steps challenge. Throughout the month, employees averaging 10,000 steps per day are rewarded with incentives. Last year our organization walked a combined 173,088 miles – that is the equivalent of walking around the Earth at the equator approximately 7 times! Now that is a lot of steps!
We encourage you to join us in celebrating N a t i o n a l We l l n e s s Month by finding ways to incorporate more movement into your own day.
