The Chris Hani District embarked on a healthy living activity where
employees of the CSC and the neighbouring Lukhanji LSA participated on a 3km
fun walk which took place in Komani hospital on 1 April 2009.
According to Assistant Director Employee Wellness Programme Mrs Babalwa
Siwani, the main aim of the program was to promote healthy life style and to
promote and develop team spirit among the employees.
âThis is a holistic intervention of promoting a productive workforce because
employees participate on their own will, we do not force them but encourage and
motivate them to participate for their own health,â she said.
She also mentioned that the section was newly established at district level
and it still needed to be marketed so that employees can have a clear
understanding of what it is all about.
We are now planning to have information sharing sessions and workshops
regarding the employee awareness programme role, concluded Mrs Siwani.
