Healthy Workplace Month

Now that we all have learned a lot about a healthy work environment, it is now our turn to practice it. Healthy Workplace Month will take place from October 4th - October 31st 2010. This is what will be practiced in the four weeks (http://www.healthyworkplacemonth.ca/):

Week One - Feeling Great at Work

Kick off Healthy Workplace Month focusing on the workplace. Although we all have a job to do it's possible to incorporate healthy living and activities into our working hours.

Week Two - Feeling Great with Family & Friends

This week's focus is family and friends, and the importance of maintaining a healthy work/life balance

Week Three - Feeling Great at Play!

This week we focus on having fun! Participate in a group at your organization, or take part in individual activities on your own or with some colleagues. All activities focus on the three concepts of Healthy Mind; Healthy Body; and Healthy Work.

Week Four - Feeling Great Giving Back

Social responsibility is the focus for Week Four. Support corporate social responsibility; sponsor a day at Habitat for Humanity; promote the concept of volunteerism as a business learning opportunity (volunteer for a board of a community association, not for profit entity, food bank, etc.).

So now lets make every month a Healthy Workplace Month!!!
