Chatham Steel Corporation has implemented an innovative wellness program called "Steel Fit" led by the passionate Director of Human Resources Missy Jarrott, which provides employees lower health insurance premiums if they meet various wellness requirements including health screenings, lifestyle programs, and community events.

Under the leadership of Missy and President Bert Tenenbaum, Chatham Steel will be recognized for their program at a national conference and two of their leaders will speak at

EmployersLikeMe was excited to travel to their Savannah office and learn first-hand about their Steel Fit program and to meet their own energizer bunny and not-so- secret weapon Miss Missy. Yes, great things come in small packages! When you dig into Chatham Steels programs its quickly apparent that theyve been on the cutting edge of employer health care innovation. Its hard to mention any type of employer health program that Chatham Steel hasnt done. Not only have they done it, they started theirs before others and they have exact numbers to prove results for what theyre doing. The breadth of their programs is matched only by the passion and intensity of their Director of Human Resources, Missy Jarrott. She is affectionately known by the hard working steel handling employees as Miss Missy. But dont let that soft sounding moniker fool you because she is a dynamo that is more than a match for any employee who strays from the program. And the other big thing you quickly realize is that Missy is backed 100% by company President Bert Tenenbaum. Anyone knowing Savannah history or Georgia history for that matter recognizes the Tenenbaum name. The family has a long history of not only successful business operations but also a culture of civic involvement and giving back to the community. So it only makes sense that they also want to take care of their employees which in turn helps their success. And its not every day you visit a company boardroom that has a raised steel United States Presidential seal autographed by President Obama during a company visit to discuss their wellness program. And there was a lot for the President to learn from Chatham Steel. Collaboration is something you hear while there and something you definitely sense when reviewing their program. Missy brings everybody together and she emphasizes EVERYBODY. It starts with the Company Wellness Team which !

includes outside talent such as Gary Rost with the Savannah Business Group. Chatham Steel was one of SBGs founders and Missy is a past member of the Executive Board of SBG, and now serves as Chatham Steels SBG representative. And frequently she brings in her TPA, Pharmacy Benefit Manager, Lifestyle Management Partner and occupational clinics to all meet with Chatham team. And not one by one but rather they all meet together and together set goals and measure results. One unique requirement for any health service provider to be involved with delivering any type of service to Chatham Steel employees is that they must first visit Chatham Steel. Missy wants them to understand the employees and their work. This has to create more of a bond and a positive relationship with the providers. Missy also requires each employee to have a family provider for the same reason. And Missy makes a special point that I dont hear at all companies; she especially listens to the employees. Chatham Steel has about 300 employees and covers around 750 lives. These employees have had a great impact on the plan design and cost parameters. And Missy has had a great impact on their health due to taking the time to listen and communicate directly and effectively. And this had a positive impact on their cost which is roughly half of the national average but as youll see their program is not average. Their plan is rich and very helpful for employees who fully participate and much more expensive and limited for those people who dont engage. They have the Proactive Plan and the Passive Plan. The Passive Plan costs three times more. Each year an employee and their spouse must meet the Proactive Plan Wellness Requirements by November 30th to qualify the next year for the lower premiums and costs of the Proactive Plan. The requirements include the usual suspects such as an HRA, annual physical, and lab screening. But they also must participate in a Lifestyle Management program geared toward their risk level, Lunch & Learn seminars, a community oriented walk/run event, a community volunteer program centered on health and the companys annual wellness competition. And heres something you might not expect; the spouse must also do the HRA, physical, lab screenings and the Lifestyle Management program. There are no exceptions for not meeting all the requirements to be in the Proactive Plan and Missy can share some tough love stories where an employee spouse missed just one small item and it kicked the family out of the plan until the next year. The message was received because now around 98% of employees are in the Proactive Plan. And Missy can tell you exactly how much this will save the company.
