Nutrition and Exercise Physiology
The workplace is an important venue to address nutrition and physical activity issues. The WorkWell Missouri resource kit was developed to assist businesses in starting, adding to or maintaining a wellness program for their staff. Unlike other resource kits, the focus is on reducing the risk factors for chronic diseases: poor nutrition, inactivity, stress and tobacco use. This is a step-by-step guide for employers to use in assessing their worksite, identifying what types of programs to implement, implementing wellness programming and determining effectiveness.
