Inktel Direct’s Corporate Wellness Employee Initiatives Seek to Support Healthy Lifestyles
MIAMI LAKES, FL (September 6, 2011) – Inktel Direct, Corp., a leading business process outsourcer specializing in marketing and governmental services, is proud to announce “Inktel Direct Wellness Month,” a month-long campaign during the month of September to promote and encourage physical, nutritional and mental well-being. The series of initiatives aim to increase employee morale and engagement, while helping employees feel better and healthier.
Chief among the initiatives will be an Inktel Direct employee weight-loss competition entitled “Mission Slimpossible.” The contestants, and all other Inktel employees, will have the opportunity to start pursuing health goals through corporate partnerships that provide free trial memberships at local gyms. The programs hopes to inspire and support those who want to lead healthier lives, through a friendly competition and a supportive team environment.
Additionally, “Wellness Month” will feature the launch of Inktel Café, which will allow Inktel Direct employees to have convenient access to healthy food year round. Inktel Café will feature culinary creations from a top local chef who is an established force in the South Florida culinary scene and recently headlined the South Beach Wine and Food Festival.
“Wellness encompasses taking deliberate effort to create a healthy body and mind,” explained Ricky Arriola, President and CEO of Inktel Direct. “At Inktel Direct we believe that physical health and mental well-being create the foundation for an individual to be successful in all facets of life. It is in that spirit that Inktel hopes to provide opportunities for all our employees to pursue their wellness goals, this month and beyond. Let’s get fit!”
As a final component of the month long campaign, Inktel Direct is complementing the physical well-being initiatives with a mental wellness workshop. During the workshop, employees will learn mindfulness meditation, which has been proven to alleviate stress, while increasing focus and vitality. Connect with Inktel Direct on its social media marketing platforms on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, CollectiveInktelligence.com and YouTube, for wellness-related content all month long.
As part of its institutional culture, Inktel Direct is committed to wellness. In the past, Inktel Direct employees have been actively involved in triathlons, marathons and other races and walks. Among its initiatives, Inktel Direct hosts on-site biometric screenings for its employees, measuring wellness items such as blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and BMI. Additionally, in the spirit of wellness, all onsite vending machines at Inktel only serve healthy snacks (no junk food allowed!).
