Next week,
The University of Rochester is making their employees’ health a priority.
On September 22, 23 and 24, the
U of R Human Resources Benefits Office invites U of R employees to take a break from their busy schedules and learn how to get fit, eat more healthfully and reduce their stress at the
2009 Health and Wellness Fair.
Conference and Events has been assisting to make sure the fair will be a success and an opportunity for employees to educate themselves and learn how to improve their health.
It’s been an eye-opener assisting HR with their fair; the U of R offers a wide-variety of programs and information aimed at keeping their employees healthy – some we didn’t even know about! Everything from
yoga classes,
assistance quitting smoking, mapped out
walking paths and
weight management support is available to employees.
Information at the fair will be provided from vendors such as Aetna, Excellus,
WELL-U,
URMC Fitness and Wellness Center, the American Heart Association,
the Eye Institute and the City of Rochester Fire Department, to name a few (for a full list of vendors, please visit the
WELL-U website).
Raffle prizes, giveaways and free biometric screenings (for employees, spouses and domestic partners covered by the University Health Care plans) are just a few things to expect at this year’s fair.
The fair will be held in two different locations around the University.
