Come see how many Rhode Island companies are improving the quality of life for their employees by supporting prevention through written materials, programs and seminars and demonstrated commitment to education and policy change. The 20th Annual Worksite Health Award Ceremony will recognize Rhode Island businesses that promote wellness in the workplace.

The event will feature keynote speaker Rip Esselstyn, Author of The Engine 2 Diet. After graduation from the University of Texas at Austin, Esselstyn spent a decade as one of the premier triathletes in the world. He then joined the Austin Fire Department where he introduced his passion for a whole-food, plant-based diet to Austin's Engine 2 Firehouse in order to rescue a firefighting brother's health.

He wrote the national bestselling book, The Engine 2 Diet, which shows the irrefutable connection between a plant-based diet and good health. Recently Esselstyn left his job as a firefighter to team up with Whole Foods Market as one of their Healthy Eating Partners. He has appeared on hundreds of radio shows as well as national television shows, including the Today show, CBS Sunday Morning Show, Good Morning America, and The Dr. Oz Show.

The Worksite Health Awards are presented by Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island in partnership with the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce. Media Sponsor: RI Monthly
