How can businesses take action to promote community health? What social determinants of health should companies take into consideration when building strategies?
These case studies provide examples of how private-sector companies have worked to build health equity in communities, develop employee health and well-being programs, and provide metrics for assessing positive impact on population health. They have accomplished this through programs in community and stakeholder engagement, workforce and operations, products and services, and policy and 宣传.
Healthy Businesses programs span four scopes of action:
Corporate work environment and business practices’ impact on health for direct and indirect employees, as well as workers in a company’s supply chain.
Health impacts and behaviors resulting from the customer and consumer use of a company’s products and services.
Company efforts and collaborations toward improving the health outcomes of a company’s key communities and focus populations.
Policy and 宣传 efforts to support regulation and cultural norms that promote healthy behaviors and health equity.
