4.0 out of 5 stars The best available book on wellness programs, September 8, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Wellness Programs for Taft-Hartley Funds (Paperback)
In "Wellness Programs in Taft Hartley Funds" Handel and Langbert question the cliches that wellness consultants present to fund managers. Yes, they argue, wellness programs judiciously applied can work. But wellness programs need to take the special characteristics of Taft Hartley funds into account. This book targets fund managers and other professionals involved in the day-to-day operation of Taft-Hartley funds. Such funds have lagged corporate plan sponsors in adopting wellness programs. One reason might be class bias inherent in wellness programs: Rank-and-file employees are typically less interested in health imagery than are managers and executives. It is incumbent upon Taft Hartley funds to help employees to better health free of class bias. Exercise programs, for example, serve little purpose for hard working longshoremen, who burn 10,000 calories a day.Over all, "Wellness Programs in Taft Hartley Funds" offers a balanced perspective on wellness programs for union workers. I highly recommend it to fund managers
