Best Practices

How to Apply to be Showcased for your Best Practices for Canada’s Healthy Workplace Month

Your organization has been trying hard to look after its workers. You are proud of the efforts you’ve been making towards improving their health and well-being, and that of the organization, too!

Canada’s Healthy Workplace Month (CHWM) wants to celebrate and showcase great examples of initiatives being taken by small, medium, and large organizations across Canada. Whether your workplace is a not-for-profit, public or private sector organization, or whether it is a small or large division of a bigger group of workers, we want to hear from you about how you are supporting healthy minds, healthy bodies, and healthy work.

To be showcased on the CHWM website, please fill out the information below and send it directly to: chwm@excellence.ca

All successful entries will receive a free “Healthy Workplace®” webinar from Excellence Canada and those organizations showcased on the CHWM website will also be entered into a competition for the CHWM BEST PRACTICES COLLECTION. The recipients of this recognition will also receive a Certificate of Achievement as a BEST PRACTICES ORGANIZATION – CHWM 2011. Winners will be announced late in November and will be showcased on the website until April, 2012.
