I am pleased to announce that this wellness program will now be offered to our members of the SMEA beginning in 2014. This program is designed to allow all non-union employees as well as SMEA member’s wellness activity release time. Employees will be eligible for up to (4) hours per calendar year. You may use this time for annual physical exams, dietician consultations, cancer screenings etc. It is my understanding that these 4 hours will not be deducted from any sick or personal time. I want to acknowledge the Mayor and his administration for recognizing that everyone’s health is a major component of our everyday on the job performance and in order to perform our daily duties at an optimum level we must take the proper preventive steps to stay healthy. You should also know that this is considered a perk and that this program can be removed if the city decides it would like to discontinue it anytime in the future. We have attached an outline of the wellness activity program as well as a wellness activity release form that explains in detail how the program works. Before using these (4) hours you should consult with either your department head or personnel and they will be able to direct you on what is eligible for wellness time off. Please go to forms link to download the wellness policy as well as the wellness time off form.

"In Somerville, the legislature’s new health care collective bargaining laws allowed the administration to change the rules in the middle of the game, preventing municipal unions from having their voice heard and vote counted at the bargaining table. It’s not fair in sports and it’s not fair in your workplace." Call your legislator and ask them to do the right thing Restore the 70% rule Give voice to all in collective bargaining!
