Did you know?
The Workplace Achievement Program gives you practical steps and easy-to-use tools and templates to promote and improve health and wellbeing in your workplace. It’s more than just a program – it provides you with a framework for continuous improvement; you can work at your own pace; and, it’s completely free.
With a focus on 5 Health Priority Areas: Physical Activity, Healthy Eating, Mental Health and Wellbeing, Smoking, and Alcohol and other Drugs, the program outlines best practice benchmarks for workplaces to work towards to improve the health of their workers.
Workplaces that achieve the health and wellbeing benchmarks of the Achievement Program are recognised by the Victorian Government and position themselves as an employer of choice.
Barwon Health provides local support for workplaces wanting to implement the Healthy Workplace Achievement Program.
