What Your Business Can Do

To reach these four goals...

Hypertension
Companies can assist their employees by offering periodic blood pressure screenings, recording the results and offering programs for those who are identified as having high blood pressure. Setting up an on-site stress management program is what many Oklahoma Certified Healthy Businesses do to help their employees stay healthy.

Obesity / Overweight
Set up screening, evaluation or preventive programs at the workplace that could include body fat evaluation to help employees identify ways to begin losing weight. Other helpful tips include setting up an on-site weight loss program, making nutrition information available at all break rooms and promoting healthy menu items at vending machines or the cafeteria.

Smoking
Smoking is one of the most serious health risks for employees today. Try setting up an on-site smoking cessation class and provide educational materials for those who are ready to quit. For additional tips, call 1-866-Pitch-Em to speak with a counselor or to receive helpful information.

Lack of Physical Exercise
Active employees are healthier employees. Try beginning activities that give employees the opportunity to exercise such as aerobics, basketball, softball, yoga or walking to name a few. Try providing an on-site area where employees can exercise and provide employees times when they would be able to exercise at work. †

† Always check with your physician first before starting any exercise program.
