Tanya Sullivan, Workplace Wellness Ambassador, believes that the workplace is where people spend at least 50% of their waking hours. A culture of wellness is imperative to creating a healthy, successful, profitable organization. Supporting staff in this area can only increase job satisfaction and make for a well-rounded place to work by contributing to a balanced lifestyle.
“We worked with Tanya on a project which included a review of the current menus offered in our employee cafeteria, training for the cooks preparing those menus and general nutritional education and information for our entire colleague base in Lake Louise. The overarching objective being to create better and healthier food for our employees whilst also providing them with more information about nutrition in general. Tanya did an excellent job leading the project, coming on property to ensure things were followed up on and providing regular updates to myself. Overall a highly successful engagement. Thank you Tanya”
“Workplace Health programs are a coordinated and comprehensive set of
health promotion and protection strategies implemented at the worksite that
includes programs, policies, benefits, environmental supports, and links to the
surrounding community designed to encourage the health and safety of all
employees.”
US Center for Disease Control
“The purpose of a worksite health promotion program is to help employees
become more aware of their current health status and actively take steps to
maintain and/or improve it so that they can lead healthier more productive
lives… and the company can be more competitive, more profitable and be seen
as an employer of choice.”
Wellness Council of America (WELCOA)
“Workplace wellness is any workplace health promotion activity or
organizational policy designed to support healthy behavior in the workplace and
to improve health outcomes. Generally speaking, health promotion is defined
as "the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve
their health… Known as 'corporate wellbeing' outside the US, it consists of a
variety of activities such as health fairs, health education, medical screenings,
health coaching, weight management programs, wellness newsletters, on-site
fitness programs and/or facilities and educational programs.”
“Workplace wellness includes organizational policies designed to facilitate
employee health including allowing flex time for exercise, providing on-site
kitchen and eating areas, offering healthy food options in vending machines,
holding “walk and talk” meetings, and offering financial and other incentives for
participation, among many other options. Workplace wellness has been
expanded over the past decade to encompass the overall creation of a “culture
of health” within the worksite.”
