US Technologies, one of the largest companies in technopark is organizing a ‘Wellness walk’ on 20th August 2008 in Technopark premises at 4.00 pm. This is an initiative by the HR department of the company aimed to promote good health and well being of its employees thus encouraging a healthy working environment.
The initiative with its motto, ‘One step furthur… towards caring and sharing online karela ‘, is ofcourse an important step to watch and learn for all the techies as well as for the HR people in different IT companies. It is learnt that, among the professionals in the job sector, the rate of deterioration of health is most among the IT professionals, with the bugs and deadlines making a heavy toll on mental and physical health. The hectic time schedules keep them away from exercises too. Only less than twenty percent of technopark employees travel by their foot to reach office everyday. The much appreciated event is a preface to think about the personal health of every IT employee. quitting smoking with zyban
