Sumitomo Electric Wiring Systems’ (SEWS) Wellness Program was recently recognized at the annual Mayor’s Healthy Hometown Movement Worksite Wellness Awards, which was held as a virtual event due to the pandemic. This is the sixth year in a row that SEWS has received a wellness award for their outstanding program.
The awards are presented by the Worksite Wellness Council which recognizes small, medium and large businesses that lead the way in implementing health promotion strategies that include topics such as nutrition, physical activity, and tobacco control.
Jeanie Dickerson RN, Corporate Wellness Coordinator, accepted the Platinum Award as well as the Workplace Agility Award from the Louisville Worksite Wellness Council. The Workplace Agility Award is newly created this year to honor company wellness programs which adapted their programs to COVID-19.
The awards are based on the nationally recognized CDC Worksite Wellness Scorecard. Points are assigned for proven health promotion strategies in several areas, including tobacco control, nutrition, physical activity, and stress management.
