is needed to achieve the aim of: 

a) Promoting health and wellbeing 

b) Preventing health problems arising in the workplace 

c) Supporting people in work with health conditions.

This will be followed by a selection of best practice case studies to demonstrate how each of these aims are being delivered in workplaces within Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Awards will be presented to applications that have met the criteria of the Awards Committee. Also lots of opportunities to network, be inspired with new ideas on how to create a healthier workplace and more….

Awards

We seek examples of good practice where employers are supporting the health and wellbeing of employees such as enabling them to promote their health through keeping active and healthy eating; through actions to prevent health problems arising in the workplace; and also through actions to enable people to stay in work despite health problems.

The application process will include a description of your initiative and any evidence of the outcomes it has achieved.  

Awards will be given to applications that meet the criteria of the Awards Committee and be showcased at the conference, with the best practices being presented as part of the Conference Programme.
