Worksite
Wellness Resource Kit
The
New Worksite Wellness Resource Kit (Sept. 2007) is a tool to assist worksites with
implementing strategies that have been proven to be effective. The
second edition of the kit provides additional information based on
feedback from pilot users during the past year. The
kit provides information to implement a broad range of strategies or programming:
some will require very little or no resources while other strategies may require
considerable resources. The kit shows you ways to get started
and make a difference in the health of your employees, regardless of the
size of your worksite and its available resources.

What
Works in Worksites (PDF, 480 KB) is a
companion document to the Worksite Wellness Resource Kit. This two-page
summary of evidence-based and promising strategies focuses on helping
people eat healthier and be more active in the work place.
The resource kit is a project of the
Nutrition and Physical Activity Program, Diabetes Prevention and Control
Program, Heart Disease and Stroke Program, Comprehensive Cancer Program,
and Arthritis Program. Unlike many other resource kits, the focus is on
reducing the risk factors to chronic disease: poor nutrition, inactivity,
mental health and tobacco use. Worksites will have a step-by-step guide to use in 1)
getting started 2) assessing their worksite, 3) identifying what types of
activities to implement, 4) linking to valuable information on how to
implement strategies and 5) determining ways to measure effectiveness.
