Worksites are the best places to reach the majority of Michigan's adult citizens to encourage them to eat better, move more, and avoid using tobacco products. To remain competitive, Michigan employers may find it necessary to create worksite environments that are supportive of these goals. However, this can be difficult, especially for small businesses. Fortunately, there are various low- or no-cost effective strategies available to Michigan worksites that can assist them in promoting good health and support their employees' healthy lifestyle behaviors.
The National Healthy Worksite Program encourages worksites to follow these steps to better health:STEP 1: Assess the health of your worksite and employees. Assessments can help identify what changes you can make to your physical worksite environment. Assessments can also identify the health concerns and overall health of your workforce. Read more about environmental assessments, Health Risk Assessments and Employee Interest Surveys to help guide your worksite through this step.

Your plan will include goal determination; selecting priority interventions; and building organizational infrastructure, such as establishing a wellness committee and engaging senior leadership.

STEP 3: Implement your program. Take the steps needed to put selected health promotion programs, policies, practices, and environmental supports into place and make them available to employees.
STEP 4: Evaluate your program. Evaluate the quality, effectiveness and importance of your health promotion activities and actions.
