In this months issue, we would like to introduce you to our "Action Challenge"  to a Healthier Lifestyle and Environment.   An employer should provide support  for three aspects of the workplace that influence employees health and wellbeing:
 
1.  A safe and healthy physical work environment.
2.  A safe and healthy psychosocial work environment, or organizational  
     culture. 
3.  A workplace that encourages the adoption of healthy lifestyles by  
     employees. 

 

Here are 3 ways to get healthy at work:

 

1.Disinfect! Most people work in a very dirty environment without even knowing it. This can lead to sickness and disease which can be prevented. Desks, phones and keyboards carry some of the largest amounts of bacteria than anywhere else. Be sure to clean your workstation daily if possible and don't leave it up to the janitors.

2.Have a stash of healthy food. It may feel impossible to avoid the Monday morning donuts or the afternoon candy bowl at the office but it isn't. All you have to do is be prepared and that means keeping your own stash of healthy snacks that won't leave you starving and reaching for the junk food

Keep carrots and hummus in the fridge or even a bag of nuts at your desk and reach for them when you feel the urge to eat.

 

3.Keep a change of clothes at work. Keep a pair of runner shoes, some shorts and a t-shirt at work and try to make time to get some exercise. If you have an hour long lunch, take full advantage of it. Instead of reading a book or browsing the internet, go for a half an hour jog or even a power walk. It will get the blood flowing, burn some calories an will energize you for the rest of the day.

Choosing a proper matting system is a strategy based on facility needs. There are many factors to take into account when making a matting purchase.
