Practical Health and Well-being Strategies to Engage and Retain the Small and Midsize Business Workforce

Workplace health and well-being (HWB) programs in large companies have received significantly more attention than those in smaller companies, as most of the research is focused there. Recognizing that most of all U.S. businesses are small to midsize (SMB), HERO is committed to assisting SMB businesses in making a positive impact on their employees. The HERO Small and Midsize Business Summit will focus on practical HWB strategies that these employers can implement to better engage and retain their employees. The strategies will have a special emphasis on affordable best practices related to mental and emotional health, leadership and manager support of workforce HWB, and establishing and promoting a culture of health.
