With the return of Brock\u2019s much-anticipated annual Employee Wellness Day comes the announcement of the University\u2019s new Health, Safety and Wellness (HSW) Champion.<\/p>\n
The HSW Champion Award was established by the HSW department in 2016 to recognize individuals or departments who make significant contributions to health, safety and wellness at the University each year.<\/p>\n
\u201cDue to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not awarded a Champion since June 2019,\u201d says Leigh Harold, Director, Health, Safety and Wellness. \u201cWe are very excited to once again provide a member of the Brock community with this recognition.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brock employees are invited to nominate individuals or departments that have demonstrated leadership in health and safety in the workplace, such championing of a culture of health, safety and wellness in their units or across campus. Also considered will be actions taken to prevent workplace injuries or illnesses.<\/p>\n
