Victaulic's Wellness Program Claims 98% Participation
Established in 2006, Victaulic reports that since its inception, 2,971 blood
pressures have been checked, 1,039 body compositions have been measured and
more than 13,000 informational handouts have been distributed. In 2006,
Victaulic hired Wellness Coaches USA™, a provider of workplace wellness
programs, to provide free personal one-on-one coaching to its employees during
all three shifts. Two full-time Wellness Coaches are on site to discuss
nutrition, exercise and overall health-related issues.
“This program started as a vehicle to provide
employees with health-related information,” said Maryellin Treacy, corporate manager
of compensation and benefits at Victaulic. “It’s evolved into a valued resource
for healthy living and a positive impact on our workplace culture.”
