Healthy Workplace Resources (HWR) was developed by NQI & Wellness Matters with sponsorship from Health Canada. HWR has been tested within the private and public sectors and vetted through health and safety specialists from across Canada.

Purpose:
The purpose of HWR is to provide a complete, on-line source of credible resources to facilitate the continuous improvement of all aspects of a healthy workplace.

Description:
Resources selected are not-for-profit and, for the most part, Canadian. HWR contains links to valuable organizations and their specific resources. To assist your search, the features of each resource are categorized according to type (conference, publication, training, etc.), subject (smoking, stress, physical activity, etc.) and NQI-PEP level (Level One: Commitment, Level Two: Planning, etc.). You can expect to find information to support you no matter where you are on the healthy workplace journey. If you know of a resource that should be added, or if you have any comments, please let us know by contacting us.

We would like to thank CCOHS and CHN for sharing their expertise in the development of this Web-based resource.
