Health equity for every employee

Factors that impede workplace production are not always easy to identify. The Model Office Blueprint leverages the ARDX® team’s expertise to enhance and build upon a company’s health equity program by addressing how an employee’s career is impacted by Social Determinants of Health.

As business leaders, it is imperative to understand the various Social Determinants of Health that are likely impacting your employees inside and outside the workplace.

How the Model Office Blueprint Works

The program entails strategic planning workshops led by an ARDX training manager covering topics that include Health Equity and Diversity & Inclusion in the Workplace.
