The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation has announced a new program designed to provide health and wellness resources and services to employees of small businesses (50 or fewer employees) in high-risk industries.
Better You, Better Ohio! aims to help both employers and their employees through this free, paperless program. Workers can earn financial rewards for participating in wellness assessments and screenings, and will be provided with opportunities to pursue a healthy lifestyle. This in turn benefits employers by encouraging a healthier workforce, increasing productivity and lowering workers' compensation claims and insurance costs.
