Take advantage of health screenings

Many workplaces offer health screenings for blood pressure, cholesterol, and other conditions. Often these are free or are offered at a low cost.

A routine screening may uncover a health problem you didn’t know you had-before it becomes serious.

Take advantage of health screenings at work and see your health care provider for regular checkups.

A survey by The Commonwealth Fund found that a significant number of men do not get routine checkups, and many ignore symptoms or delay seeking medical attention when sick or in pain.
