Growing with better health

The City of Tacoma is pleased to offer their employees a simple, social and fun wellness program that promotes a healthier lifestyle and rewards participants with lower monthly healthcare plan contributions. This program – developed by a Wellness Committee comprised of members from the City of Tacoma’s management and the Joint Labor Committee – is designed to provide the education, motivation and tools necessary to help employees improve their health and well being. Participation in this voluntary program could save each employee hundreds of dollars on an annual basis. Even better, employees will likely receive the benefits of longer, healthier and happier lives.
