I hear lots of grumblings from business owners about the rising cost of health care insurance. This cost is always on my radar as the Director of Business Operations here at NewPointe. Coming up with creative ways to lower premiums is a priority for most every employer.
We have developed an employee wellness program that is working wonderfully in getting our staff to think and act healthier. According to an story I read in Work Force Management, The Wall Street Journal reported that an Indiana bank will give their employees up to a $500 bonus if certain health screenings show good numbers. One screening is for Body Fat percentage.
Is this going to far?

Sounds like, aside from a direction towards good health, a good motivation to me.
