Annual Wellness Day Set, June 18

NIH’s annual Safety, Health and Wellness Day will be held on Tuesday, June 18 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the 6th fl. conference center, Bldg. 31, C wing. This year’s theme is “Fostering Safety, Belonging and Well-Being.”

Three hands holding spheres form a triangle. Each sphere contains imagery pertaining to safety, health and wellness.

Held in person and virtually every June during National Safety Month, the half-day event celebrates and brings awareness to workforce health, safety and wellness. The 2024 focus is to enhance staff awareness of belonging, inclusion, well-being, fitness and safety in the NIH community. Everyone is welcome. 

Activities planned:

  •  More than 40 exhibits on a wide variety of topics presented by multiple NIH components
  •  Hybrid mini-information sessions via webcast
  •  CPR demonstrations and fitness classes
  • Food demonstrations, including a BBQ World Tour and more

Mark your calendars to attend and have fun with a coworker. 

The event is hosted by NIH’s Office of Research Services with 2024 co-sponsor, the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, in collaboration with the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences, 8 Changes for Racial Equity, and NIH’s Sexual & Gender Minority Research Office and Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.
