(Salt Lake City, UT) – The Utah Department of Health is
offering free on-line trainings for employers and their employees. “These
trainings cover basic information of the affordable care act, preventive
services covered by the ACA, and information on worksite wellness programs for
both employers and employees,” said Tania Charette, project lead.
The trainings were developed through joint collaboration
among the Heart Disease Prevention, Cancer Control, and Physical Activity and
Nutrition Programs. “We want employers and employees to have information on
this relevant topic so that when they go get their insurance, they know what to
look for in a good policy,” said Nicole Bissonette, UDOH Health Systems Program
Manager.
“In the long run,
everyone wins by having healthy employees, from the individual to the
community,” Charette added.
The trainings are available on-line at http://choosehealth.utah.gov/business/worksite-wellness/wellness-programs.php
for easy accessibility.
