Staff Exercise Release Time Kicks Off with Event

A program to make it easier for Truman staff to exercise has been approved on a trial basis to begin May 28, 2007, and end Feb. 29, 2008. At the end of the trial period, the program will be evaluated for effectiveness in a number of ways, including a survey of participants and supervisors.

During the trial period, staff are encouraged to combine break times (15 minutes every four hours) with their lunch time to exercise in the Student Recreation Center or Natatorium (pool). At this time, only exercise in these facilities is included in the program. The pool will be closed during summer, but will re-open fall 2007 semester. Supervisors are encouraged to work with staff members who wish to participate in this program. Employees wishing to participate should arrange the time for exercise conveniently in their workday in advance so that all necessary responsibilities are covered.  

Contact Human Resources for questions related to the scheduling of time off to participate in the program.

Other questions please contact Karen Skoch, fitness/wellness director, at 785.7739.
