Healthcare and Your Employees in 2010

in Historical

On April 20, the CCTI is offering you the opportunity to explore the possibilities that will help business owners and HR managers design, implement and evaluate effective health promotion and wellness programs to achieve the best plan for their employees.

  • Three out of four employers offer some kind of wellness program, but are they really improving your employees’ health and your organization’s productivity?
  • What incentives are you currently offering your employees?
  • Is it to quit smoking or to lose weight?
  • Did you know that obesity is one of the top drivers of work-related disability costs?
  • Obesity often leads to diabetes.  Did you know that one worker’s decreased productivity due to diabetes can cost the worker between $3,700 and $8,700 in annual earnings?
  • In 2002, economic costs associated with diabetes totaled $132 billion. Direct and indirect medical costs of obesity accounted for 9.1% of all U.S. medical expenditures in 1998.

This 2 hour workshop will help business owners and HR managers learn, design, implement, promote and evaluate simple, economical and effective steps to lower health care costs, increase productivity, and reduce use of health care and worker’s comp/disability benefits.
