WORKPLACE WELLNESS NETWORK

The UNCG Workplace Health Network (WHN) is an interdisciplinary group dedicated to advancing the impact of Total Worker Health® (TWH) initiatives. In alignment with the TWH Hierarchy of Controls, we take a socioecological approach to workplace safety, health, and well-being. We offer education, training, consulting, and research and evaluation.

Our team members come from multiple academic departments including Public Health Education, Economics, Nutrition, Interior Architecture, and the School of Nursing, as well as the internal UNCG Workplace Wellness Program, HealthyUNCG. Our group has expertise in program planning and implementation, health and wellness coaching, chronic disease management and risk reduction, mental health, screening and brief intervention, food environments, return on investment, cost-effectiveness, evaluation, and more.

We are a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Total Worker Health® Affiliate and we are committed to education, practice, research, and strategic collaborations that will contribute to protecting and promoting worker well-being.
