    Event Description:
    Lunch & Learn—Three Reasons You Should Still Care About Tobacco Use in the Workplace—November 12—Noon-1PM—Via Zoom
    Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable U.S. deaths each year, and the associated diseases and health care costs are significant. Tobacco users incur more medical costs, see physicians more often and are admitted to hospitals for longer periods than non-tobacco users. In addition to direct health effects to tobacco users, employees who do not smoke can be impacted by secondhand smoke. Committing to a completely tobacco-free workplace (buildings, grounds, and vehicles) and promoting cessation will positively impact all employees. David Anderson, Live Well Goodhue County Co-Coordinator will share additional information about current tobacco products and use, cessation programs and policy development. If your company is trying to provide healthy options for your employees, this is the perfect session to attend! Did you know Goodhue County Live Well has grants available that can help you transform your workplace into an even healthier environment for your workers? The Red Wing Area Chamber of Commerce is teaming with Live Well Goodhue County to provide up to date information for your business.
