All City of Liberty employees are able to participate in Employee Wellness programming. Some programs (specifically Liberty Community Center personal training services) will have an associated fee; however, we also want to provide options that make wellness programming affordable and accessible to everyone, thus we offer several self-directed programs at no cost. To be considered an “eligible” employee to earn the added incentive quarterly for the completion of these programs you must either work for the City of Liberty in a Full-Time or Part-Time capacity. Contracted and temporary staff are still able to participate in offered programs; however, they are not eligible to earn the time off incentive.My Impact Incentive Employee Wellness Program

Sign-ups and promotions for official City of Liberty Employee Wellness programs and activities will indicate eligibility for incentives, including specific requirements for completing the program or activity (such as attending a certain number of sessions, completing a post-assessment, or signing the attendance log). Remember, participation earns you the incentive; just signing up does not. A new list of eligible activities will be sent to all City of Liberty staff and posted to the My Impact Incentive (Employee Wellness) section on Jostle no later than the 10th of the first month of each quarter (July, October, January, April), and will be updated as new activities are added.
