In December 2002, IT Council approved an official IT Division Wellness Program. To participate, division employees must meet the following requirements:
-
Be a "Wellness Program" participant.
-
Be a WSU employee. Release time will be prorated based on total hours worked per week.
-
Limit "in-load" wellness activity to three hours a week (not to exceed 1 hour a day), or 35 minutes a day.
-
Limit activities to those that can take place on campus (gym, trails, tennis courts, DEC, Stadium, etc.) See the page linked at left for a list of activities to choose from.
-
Sign the consent form (see link at left).
-
Not abuse the privilege. If the privilege is abused, supervisors may, at their discretion impose the following:
> 1st incident - one month suspension of the privilege.
> 2nd incident - three month suspension of the privilege.
> 3rd incident - six month suspension (minimum) of the privilege. -
Supervisors have the discretion to approve alternative wellness programs for staff with physical or other limitations. Supervisors can request that staff work out a wellness schedule with them, or suspend the privilege depending on the workload.
