« Go Back Host a health fair.Why: Corporate health fairs are an effective way to provide valuable health information and screening services to large numbers of employees in a convenient “one-stop shop” format. How: There are several ways to plan a health fair. Some companies may chose to host their own health fair for employees. With either option, planning follows some basic steps. Establishing a Health Fair Planning Committee is the first step to a successful event. This committee should include a cross section of employees interested in healthy living and willing to commit time to the planning process. This committee may do the following tasks: Select a date and location Create goals and objectives Develop a budget Contact vendors or exhibitors Create a theme Market the event Solicit volunteers to help with the event Create evaluations for both vendors and participants Analyze the evaluations Submit a post-event report to management Health fairs should complement the workplace environment and provide services in a convenient manner for employees. No matter the size of the event, offering some services on-site encourages employees to examine their lifestyle and health. Simply increasing awareness of health issues may be the greatest benefit of the event.
