Well City Milwaukee
|
| |
|
|
| |
| Milwaukee has been declared one of the healthiest cities in the nation, receiving the coveted Silver Well City USA designation from the Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA). |
| |
 To become involved in this initiative, Milwaukee business leaders were required to develop and submit to WELCOA a strategic plan, budget and letters of commitment from the leadership and business communities. Once accepted for participation, WELCOA require the process to be completed within three years. When businesses and organizations sign on to participate, they commit to developing and implementing results driven, best practice employee wellness programs. In return, Well City provides their wellness and human resource representatives with training, resources and support on how to develop and deliver worksite wellness programs with the goal of meeting the Well Workplace criteria. Well Workplace Awards are given at five levels: Small Business, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum.
In 2010, Milwaukee reached the first step in workplace wellness by receiving Well City designation. Moving forward, the goal is to continue on the path to healthier lifestyles by broadening and deepening our outreach with employers to make workplace wellness standard practice in the Milwaukee business community.
