The Eastern Ontario Health Unit provides assistance to employers and decision-makers who wish to improve the health and lifestyle of employees by creating changes to the work environment.

Examples of changes to a work environment that can support healthier employees are:

  • the availability of bike racks
  • the promotion of smoke-free environments 
  • the promotion of regular hand washing to prevent the spread of infections
  • providing healthy food choices in the cafeteria
  • providing shaded outdoor areas for breaks
  • providing a room for breastfeeding mothers who wish to pump and store milk
Many improvements to a work environment can be done easily and at a low cost. Call us for more ideas on how to make changes happen in your workplace.

For more information, you can call 613-933-1375 or 1 800 267-7120 and ask for the Health Line.
