The CDC has announced a new, free program, called "Lean Works!" to help businesses assess how much money worker obesity is costing their company (it's probably more than you think), and how much they might stand to gain from implementing an obesity intervention and prevention plan. Here's what you can expect:
- Evidence based research to help you plan, create, and promote an obesity prevention and control program for your business.
- Tool kits, resources, and information to guide you through every step of the program, such as sample presentations, employee surveys, health risk assessment tools, etc
- An interactive calculator for obesity cost, which enables you to learn how much obesity is costing your business, and the amount you could save when obesity is no longer an issue.
Visit http://www.cdc.gov/leanworks/ for more information about their program.
Our office is also available to provide Health Days/Workshops that can include Weight Management Consultations, Chiropractic Screenings and Evaluation, Proper Lifting/Exercise Techniques, Blood Pressure Monitoring, Body Mass Index, Nutritional Counseling, Stress Management, and Acupuncture Consultations to name a few. Call us at 912-427-8433 to schedule a Health Day at your business, church, or organization. This is a free service that we offer to the community.
