Item C2Qua- mm_ W_ Qaq, 1; Meeting Date:_ October 21, 2015 Bulk Item: Yes _ No X Department: Employee Services Staff Contact Person/Phone #: Teresa Aguiar X4458 _ AGENDA ITEM WORDING: One Grand Prize Drawing by Commissioner Murphy out of all employees who participated in the 2015 Health & Wellness Fair. ITEM BACKGROUND: Health and Wellness Fairs were held in the lower, middle and upper keys during the month of September. As an incentive to attend and participate in the event, employees were eligible to have their name placed in a drawing to win a bicycle if they attended the Health Fair, obtained their biometric screening and visited the available educational stations. Employees also had the opportunity to have two additional chances to be entered in the drawing if they participated in other activities on site at the health fairs. Health and Wellness Fairs provide valuable health information and screening services and is a way to motivate employees to make positive health behavior changes and to assume responsibility for their own well-being. The Fairs are a strategy to contain our costs by detecting chronic conditions and preventing disease. The money being used for the bicycle is the funding that was provided to us in November, 2011 from Blue Cross Blue Shield. A total of $50,000 is available for Wellness. So far, this money has been used to reimburse employees for participating in run/bike/walkathons in addition to Lunch and Learns.
