Fruity Friday and other stories

Employers are interested in creating a culture of wellness in their workplace. During a recent conversation with a NJ employer I learned they removed three vending machines (one soda, one sandwich, one snacks) from the workplace. In place of the machines a healthy box of snacks is available for purchase by the employees. The employer also instituted a Fruity Friday, fresh fruit available for employees, and a Veggie Monday, fresh veggies available for employees, for alternating months. Of course the employees love these fresh products! Small steps such as these can begin the path to a healthier workplace.
