Does the institution have an employee assistance or wellness program that provides counseling, referral, and well-being services to employees?:
A brief description of the employee wellness program, policy, or practice:
Benefits: GVSU’s Personalized Benefits Program is a cafeteria-style plan model that allows employees to customize their benefits program to best fit their individual medical, dental, and vision needs, yet still serve the university’s large and diverse work force.
Wellness: GVSU’s wellness mission is to be the healthiest campus in Michigan. We take pride in offering our employees a variety of options to help in their physical and emotional health and well-being. We encourage them to be active throughout the day, to eat more nutritious foods, and make healthier lifestyle choices. Instilling a healthy mindset will not only reap benefits in the lives of our employees, but also in the lives of their families as well as the student body. Healthy employees means less sick time away from work and fewer doctors visits, resulting in better control of the rising cost of health care.
Work Life: Work Life is simply a connection between your work and your life. GVSU's Work Life program provides information, resources, support and referrals on most any concern that employees experience, whether personal or work related.
