In order to promote health and wellness for employees, many major employers in Austin and the surrounding area offer wellness programs as part of the benefits package. It's a win-win for employers whose purpose for offering these programs is to increase productivity by decreasing employee time off for "sick" time. Employees are happier, too, thanks to the serotonin and endorphins hopping around after a good lunch time work out.
If you're an employee of any of the following major employers in our area (or world wide in a couple of cases), definitely take advantage of the programs offered. If your employer does not yet offer such benefits, be the catalyst! Ask for it! Start a movement!
