The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the American workplace. One thing many employers now know is that much more is needed for a holistic approach to employee well-being.

Join us for a Dec. 6 Worksite Wellness Webinar discussing how synchronizing employee wellness programs with diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) can generate happier, healthier employees.

A 2022 Gallup survey, Advancing DEI Initiatives: A Guide for Organizational Leaders, found that employers who support DE&I initiatives within wellness programs reported:

Improved work performance
Lower absenteeism
Lower health care costs
