Here is a list of simple, but effective things you can do.

WorkLife by Meridian works in partnership with businesses to develop customized programs to meet their employee needs. Meridian began offering drug and alcohol testing and counseling services in 1989, but soon expanded its offerings to include a variety of additional services designed to impact employee wellness and productivity. Companies can choose individual services or allow WorkLife to develop a customized solution that can address a broad range of workplace wellness issues

WorkLife by Meridian offers a full range of drug and alcohol testing services, at our facility or on-site. All tests are administered by certified lab and breath alcohol technicians to ensure accurate, reliable results. Drug screens will help you lower your healthcare and workers compensation costs while promoting better on-the-job performance

WorkLife by Meridian has DOT-certified physicians on staff to ensure that our occupational health and testing services meet the requirements of all regulatory bodies. From pre-employment physicals and First Report of Injury to DOT and Return to Work physicals, WorkLife meets every need. We provide pre-employment health screens along with comprehensive immunization services

The lifestyle choices employees make have a huge impact on their overall health and well-being — and in turn, on their rate of absenteeism due to illness, as well as their productivity and on-the-job satisfaction. Our wellness programs ensure that employees with low health risks remain that way, while helping those with medium- and high-risk health factors to reduce their risks
