Sector-Related Success Stories

The well-being of West Virginia’s workforce greatly impacts the fiscal health of businesses and the overall economic climate of the state. By providing opportunities and encouraging employees to participate in physical activity, business and industry leaders can foster a climate that promotes healthful habits among dependents, community members, and business partners across the state. This can be accomplished through advocating and supporting increased opportunities for physical activity during and outside the workday, and by incentivizing employees to engage in physical activity. Business leaders can also promote physical activity by collaborating with other sector partners to advocate for policy change and build support for local and statewide healthy climates and communities.
