Health Services & Health Benefits
"Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities.” This means that health is a resource to support an individual's function in wider society, rather than an end in itself. A healthful lifestyle provides the means to lead a full life with meaning and purpose.

Health Services Wellness Programs strive to create a healthy work environment through integrated programs designed to provide employees with tools and skills for leading healthy lifestyles, prevent injury and illness, and contribute to higher performance, morale, and job satisfaction.
Occupational Health Portal
Health Services is now using clinic.lbl.gov. The website is an efficient method to communicate with Health Services. It is also a repository for testing results and provides links to information about FMLA and disability leave, illness, and other health topics.
