Oakstone Publishing Launches "Top Health Online" - Internet-Based Employee Wellness Newsletter
According to Nancy Marshall Wilkins, Oakstone Publishing's President and CEO: "TopHealth Online is a significant addition to Oakstone's successful line of health and wellness publications. In this era of escalating health care and health insurance costs, more and more companies are recognizing that proactive campaigns to educate their employees about wellness issues can help improve the overall health of their employees. This contributes to higher productivity, fewer sick days, and reduced health insurance claims."
Wilkins said that TopHealth Online is particularly appropriate for businesses and organizations in which a large number of employees use computers on a frequent basis. Many Oakstone customers purchase both the print and electronic versions of TopHealth along with other Oakstone Wellness publications. Print publications are made available in employee break areas and cafeterias as well as delivered to employees with their paychecks.

Dennis Hofmaier, Oakstone Wellness' Publisher, said: "TopHealth is designed to be educational as well as inspirational. Each issue contains informative, understandable articles on such topics as nutrition, prevention of common diseases and injuries, and exercise and fitness. We also provide actionable advice and tips that employees and their families can use to stay healthy."
Oakstone Wellness also publishes TopSafety, a newsletter promoting workplace safety habits; TopDollar, dealing with personal and family money management; TopPerformance, for enhancing employee productivity and time management; and ShiftWorker, for employees who work in structured shift environments. In addition to newsletters, Oakstone Wellness publishes a broad range of brochures, posters, books and booklets.
