interest and special need. Programs are especially effective when focused by the
aggregate risk appraisal data of the employee population. Class topics range from
“Heart Healthy Eating” to “Medical Consumerism.”
Focused Incentive Programs

Programming combines health education, physical activity and friendly team competition.

a stronger team.

core behaviors, focused by the Health Risk Appraisal data. Points are awarded
for ongoing participation and accomplishments, and can make employees eligible
for rewards. Challenges include adding 30 minutes of aerobic exercise three times
per week, eating recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables, and abstaining
from tobacco products.
