Webinar Reminder: Workplace Wellness Post COVID-19

Why the webinar matters: The last several years have created a host of challenges for employers and traditional worksite wellness initiatives. The pandemic revealed that many wellness programs were not comprehensive or well-rounded enough. The programs also did not address whole-person health.

As many organizations quickly pivoted from onsite to remote work, a gap emerged. Employees needed more robust mental health programs, resiliency training and to learn how to stay connected in a virtual work environment. Looking ahead to the end of the pandemic, employers are searching for alternative ways to engage, motivate and support employees.

Join us for the Q3 Worksite Wellness webinar, as we explore strategies that reimagine worksite wellness.
