Occupational Wellness is:
is the ability to get personal fulfillment from our jobs or our chosen career fields while still maintaining balance in our lives. Our desire to contribute in our careers to make a positive impact on the organizations we work in and to society as a whole leads to Occupational Wellness.
Occupational Wellness Check:
This is a quick check of your intellectual wellness.
- Do I enjoy going to work most days?
- Do I have a manageable workload at work?
- Do I feel that I can talk to my boss and co-workers with problems arise?
- I have completed an internship in a career I am interested in?
- Does my major match the things that interest me?
If you answered “no” to any of these question, you may need to focus on developing this dimension of wellness.
