Employee Wellness Program

 Wellness Committee 

The Employee Wellness Program is designed to positively impact the health of our workforce and the financial health of Allegheny County.  Employees learn ways to develop and incorporate healthy choices into their lifestyle through education and activity resulting in healthier employees, improved morale, reduced absenteeism, and cost savings for Allegheny County.  The Wellness Program is administered by the Wellness Committee, made up of employees from all areas of the County workforce.  We have adopted the motto that embodies the focus of wellness and government: "Be Well, Live Well, Serve Well."
