The Connecticut Business & Industry Association announced Wednesday a new partnership to provide small businesses with communication tools to help employees improve their health.
As employers become more responsible for employees’ health and the cost of their health care, several organizations are looking into new resources and communication methods to raise awareness  and engage employees about pursing healthier lifestyles.
“Engaging in basic health and wellness practices is a win-win for employers and their employees,” John Rathgeber, CBIA CEO, said in a press release. “A healthy workforce is vital to our overall quality of life, a key factor in our economic competitiveness.”
The Connecticut Health Foundation will fund the program, which is in partnership with the Campaign for a Stronger Connecticut.
