Employee Health and Wellness
The health and well-being of every Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR) employee is an important priority. When employees experience optimal physical, emotional, and mental health and wellness, they enjoy life to the fullest. This has a positive effect on others. Every employee contributes to the well-being of each other and to those within our custody and care at each of our facilities.
The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation earned the distinction of being an approved Blue Zones Worksite for our commitment to Blue Zones principles that are based on best practices to create environments where businesses and employees flourish.
These principles include:
- Empower Leaders
Empowering leaders with skills and resources to adopt well-being behaviors for themselves and those they manage. - A Culture of Well-being
Building a supportive culture of well-being. - Foster Purpose
Create a sense of purpose within your organization and support employees in identifying and pursuing their own purpose within the context of their work. - Transform Environment
Create an environment that ensures the healthy choice is the easy choice through the physical layout and food and beverage options. - Supportive Programs
Promote engaging programs that support the health and emotional well-being of employees and family members.
