Introduction

What is the Healthy Workplace Recognition Program?
The Healthy Workplace Recognition Program (HWRP) is an initiative of the San Antonio Business Group on Health (SABGH), in collaboration with the Mayor’s Fitness Council. The program was designed to recognize local employers who create or maintain a culture of wellness within their organizations and make a commitment to support their employees’ health and wellness needs.
The SABGH is an organization made up of local employers and providers of workplace wellness programs. The SABGH aims to improve the health of the San Antonio workforce by providing the business community with opportunities to network, discuss best practices, promote workplace wellness initiatives, and recognize local employers for their efforts to improve employee health and wellness.

The Mayor’s Fitness Council engages non-profits, businesses, city government, health systems, schools, and universities to serve as a conduit and advocate for stakeholders working to improve health in San Antonio. The mission of the Mayor’s Fitness Council is to increase awareness and connect San Antonio residents to opportunities for improved emotional well-being, physical activity, and healthy eating.
