Defined Risk Groups
WIN for Alaska’s Defined Risk Groups are made up of participants who have similar risk factors based on biomedical and behavioral data. Participants may voluntarily join groups for the purpose of partnering and accountability.
Personal Health Plans
A Personal Health Plan is different for each individual. Participants who identify healthy lifestyle goals and determine the short- and long-term steps to take to reach those goals, more often than not, reach them.
Ergonomic Evaluations
Proper alignment of a workspace to an employee's body can reduce stress and strain. During our ergonomic evaluations, we adjust the participant's work environment to fit their body shape and size. We also provide digital pictures and recommendations in a report to their supervisor.
Targeted Communications
- Employees can sign up to receive a health tip-of-the-week and/or defined interest group email.
- Health In Action Newsletters provide participants with national trends, current health information, program specifics, community resources, employee success stories, and audiocasts.
Web Portal & Online Resources
We customize a web portal specifically for your business. The portal gives participants access to many online resources such as our Health Activity Tracker, Online Wellness Center, information on and links to local events and health resources.
Health Activity Tracker is a program that helps participants keep track of healthy activity and biometric information.
- Log biometric data (weight, blood pressure, etc.)
- Monitor changes in biometric data
- Record fitness activities and aerobic miles
- Track progress toward priority health goals
- Register completed Wellness Challenges
- Log participation in health classes and events
- Earn points through completed health activities
- Tally monthly wellness points to be used with the rewards program
Educational Materials
WIN for Alaska provides a variety of educational materials to help participants work toward their personal health plan and change their behavior to adopt healthier lifestyles.
Educational Materials may include information on nutrition, weight management, smoking cessation, fitness, exercise, prenatal and postnatal care, menopause, stress management, chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and back pain. We also offer various books and tip sheets delivered to participants upon request.
