Ohio Department of Health Director Theodore E. Wymyslo, M. D. and Laura Ritzler, chair of the Healthy Ohio Business Council (HOBC) will recognize 35 Ohio businesses for healthy worksite practices during the ninth annual Healthy Ohio Healthy Worksite Awards.
National Bank and Trust Company in Clinton County was among the Gold winners for 2012.
The awards ceremony will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 29 at noon at the Embassy Suites in Dublin, Ohio during the Health Action Council 2013 Annual Conference.
The conference features national experts on health reform, health care systems and health benefits.
A total of 86 companies, cities and townships applied for the 2012 awards, which recognize Ohio employers who demonstrate a commitment to employee health through comprehensive worksite health promotion and wellness programs.
The 2012 Healthy Ohio Healthy Worksite awards are sponsored by Aetna, a national leader in health care, dental and pharmacy services, insurance, and employee benefits.
“Employee health and wellness efforts result in major benefits for both employer and employee,” said HOBC chair Ritzler. “Positive returns on investment are realized in employees who improve their health resulting in decreased rates of absenteeism and increased productivity. Employers also realize reductions in health care costs and an overall increase in productivity and job satisfaction.”
This award recognizes Ohio employers that demonstrate a commitment to employee health by incorporating comprehensive worksite health promotion and wellness programs. It acknowledges efforts to facilitate and encourage employee health, enhance productivity and ensure a healthy work environment.
All worksites, large and small, for profit and nonprofit, are encouraged to apply for the Healthy Ohio Healthy Worksite Award.
All applications will be reviewed and evaluated by a selection committee composed of members of the Healthy Ohio Business Council (excluding regional council members).
The three levels of achievement are awarded in Gold, Silver or Bronze.[[In-content Ad]]
