Add in the costly ripple effect in other areas\, such as increased work absences and greater disability claims\, and the business case to focus on tobacco is hard to ignore. \nAbout 70% of smokers say they want to quit; more than 60% of e-cigarette users say they want to quit\, too. A quit-tobacco program at the workplace can give employees a better chance of kicking the habit. \nTo motivate more tobacco users to quit or attempt to quit\, more than 50% of employers use some form of an incentive—including a tobacco surcharge. Yet\, offering the right premium differential for tobacco use takes careful preparation. \nJust ask Generac\, a leading manufacturer of commercial and industrial generators.  Generac has 3\,800+ employees in the U.S. working in office and production settings. Like other employers\, Generac has concerns about the health of their employees who smoke\, use e-cigarettes or smokeless tobacco. \nGenerac has a long-standing tradition of providing tools\, resources and financial incentives to employees through their Healthy Living Program. In 2006\, Generac began to provide financial rewards to employees who take an active role in maintaining good health. \nIn 2018\, Generac added additional incentives for individuals who would “Commit to be Tobacco Free.”  Generac’s strong communication strategy and plan initiatives are progressive\, and their results have shown to have an impact on trend. \nDate: Tuesday\, November 05\, 2019 \nTime: 1:00 PM ET \nRegister Today \n\n\nPRESENTERS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJessie Saul Ph.D.\nDirector of Client Success\, EX Program by\nTruth Initiative\nView Profile\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChristine Reichardt\nHealth & Wellness Manager\nGenerac Power Systems Inc\nView Profile URL:https://staging.bhthechange.org/event/kicking-butts-how-to-help-employees-quit-tobacco-with-incentives-sponsored-by-truth-initiative/ CATEGORIES:Webinar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20190925T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20190925T150000 DTSTAMP:20260506T231510 CREATED:20190910T180727Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190910T180727Z UID:4846-1569420000-1569423600@staging.bhthechange.org SUMMARY:Nicotine Cessation Across Disciplines\, A Team Approach\, Hosted by SCLC and AARC DESCRIPTION:When?\nWednesday\, September 25\, 2019\, 2:00pm to 3:00pm EDT \nSpeaker\nGabrielle N.
