12055. DESIGNING A WELLNESS PROGRAM FOR A 500-EMPLOYEE CORPORATION. Designs an employee health promotion - or "wellness" program - for a hypothetical company with 500 employees, two-thirds of whom are classified as blue collar. The paper begins with an "overture to management" which presents the basic rationale and argument in favor of implementing a wellness program as well as a general overview of sample components of typical programs. The analysis then proceeds step-by-step through the planning, design, and implementation stages of the program. 13 pages, 45 footnotes, 28 bibliographic sources.
