Kapnick strive® + School Districts
Schools in the United States employ more than 8 million people. We entrust this large workforce with one of the nation’s most critical functions — preparing our youth to become successful and productive citizens. School districts are like businesses in the private sector when it comes to employee-related expenses: they must pay for employee absenteeism, healthcare costs, workers’ compensation, lost productivity and disability. Employee wellness programs, like Kapnick strive®, directly affect each of these employee-related costs.

Healthy Role Models
School employees interested in their own health are more likely to take an interest in the health of their students. In turn, students are more likely to engage in health-promoting activities when school employees model such behaviors.
Teachers and Stress
One health condition that research has shown to be prominent in teachers is stress. For example, between 5% and 20% of all U.S. teachers are burned out at any given time. Compared with other professions, teachers show high levels of exhaustion and tension, the core dimensions of burnout. This intense stress leads to low employee morale and high turnover.
