Physical Health Initiatives

Physical health is typically one of the first things we think about when it comes to our overall health. But being physically healthy is about more than just physical activity. It’s about eating healthy foods that make you feel good, keeping a regular sleep schedule and taking care of yourself to prevent illness and injury. Purolator Health is here to provide you with trusted information, practical suggestions and access to programs and referrals that will meet your physical health needs.

Healthy Workplace Habits

Rushed mornings, a packed schedule, and pastry-filled boardroom meetings can make healthy eating at work a real challenge. Establishing healthy workplace habits can improve energy and concentration, avoid the afternoon slump, and reduce sick days. This session guides participants to make healthier meal and snack choices at work, avoid mindless eating, and stay energized without relying on caffeine throughout the workday.
