Does your company encourage its employees to maintain a healthy lifestyle? If so, please fill out a “Most Fit Company” application (available here July 2008) to be considered for the Kaiser Permanente Cup, a special recognition given to companies that provide a healthy work environment for employees. The “Most Fit Company” application is designed to help identify the strength of your company’s employee health & wellness initiatives. Awards are presented to companies based on employee size in four categories: more than 5,000 employees; 1,000 – 4,999 employees; 100-999 employees; and 100 employees or less.The survey takes just a few minutes and will be judged by the Worksite Workgroup of Georgia's Nutrition and Physical Activity Initiative. This initiative is a joint effort between the Division of Public Health and its public, private and non-profit partners, to prevent obesity and other chronic diseases through healthy eating and physical activity initiatives across the life span.
