WORKPLACE HEALTH MAKES CENTS

The workplace can impact our health – either positively or negatively.  Supports in the workplace that encourage employees to practice healthy lifestyle behaviours can result in healthier, happier, and more productive employees.

Eight small Chatham-Kent businesses (100 or less employees) are being offered $250.00 seed funding, to assist employers in providing supports to create a healthy work environment. This opportunity is also extended to local not-for-profit organizations.

What is unique about this initiative is all applications must include a tobacco initiative.  This could be No Smoking within 9m of your entrances or your own Quit Smoking Contest.  You decide what works for your workplace.
