Formerly known as the Wednesday In The Park, the new “My GMA SHRM Toolbox” sessions are geared to provide HR professionals at all levels an opportunity to further their learning in the core areas of Human Resources. The Toolbox session is meant to be a facilitated & interactive discussion to assist in this learning experience.
Everywhere you turn you get a glimpse of wellness. It is in the news with the obesity epidemic on the rise, it is on TV with the Biggest Loser reality show, and the internet consumes you with the misleading advertisements for the “magic diet pills”. The information we need on wellness is at our finger tips. The difficult part is trying to sift through what works and what doesn’t.
With wellness on the forefront of everyone’s mind, as an employer how are you supporting your employees’ efforts to be good stewards of fitness and health?
Are you making it easy for employees to be healthy and make the right wellness choices at the workplace?
This toolbox program will review best practice resources and the varying types of wellness programs along with tips and tricks. Whether you are looking for ways to get your program up and running, or you have an established wellness program within your company, the goal of this program will have you leaving with the direction you need to take action and make a difference at your workplace.
