Wellness Steps that Work Well

In this episode you'll hear from Kelsey Pruss, MS, and Karen Rehm from the Nebraska Safety Council Wellness Team, Bob Williams, Director of Human Resources at Garner Industries, and host John Lefler, Jr. as they discuss the first steps to establishing a culture of wellness in your workplace. This discussion includes the fundamentals for communication, programming, and most importantly “buy-in” from your staff.

Only if you believe large businesses should be the only ones to benefit from improved productivity, a stronger workplace culture, and ultimately cost savings.
