The Illinois Tech Human Resources Department is soliciting for new members for the Wellness Committee. The objective of the Wellness Committee is to serve as advocates for Illinois Tech’s Wellbeing Initiatives and to provide leadership in the development of initiatives to promote the health and wellbeing of our faculty and staff.

Goals for the upcoming fiscal year include:

• Creation of a Wellness page/tab in myIIT
• Hosting a fitness event
• Promoting a health fair to kick off Open Enrollment
• Creating a strategy and timeline for the wellness program

We anticipate that the Wellness Committee will meet monthly in the early stages, then monthly and ultimately quarterly once we have a strategy in place. The time commitment for committee members is expected to be approximately 1.5 hours per meeting, plus any additional time spent volunteering at events.

If you are interested in serving on the Wellness Committee, or wish to nominate someone in your department, please contact Viktoria Rill at 312.567.3353, or vrill@iit.edu, by Friday, July 14, 2107.
