The Town of Tecumseh has been recognized as a healthy place to work.
It's been presented with the Gord Smith Healthy Workplace Award by the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit.
Director of Corporate Services, Laura Moy, says employees have embraced the programs offered by the town. "We put on different workshops, we bring in guest speakers, provide some fun activities to help encourage employees to participate. We have a wellness committee that helps organize all of these different activities and arranges for the speakers to come in. So we have a very active wellness committee that is very engaged with our staff."
Moy says the town is a bike-friendly as well.
The award marks the fifth time Tecumseh has been recognized for workplace wellness.
