Denver Wellness Program
We promote employee health and well-being with resources, activities and a wellness incentive. We support our employees with our four pillars of wellness: physical well-being, financial well-being, mental well-being and professional well-being.
Physical Well-Being
We offer our employees a variety of resources to promote physical health.
Wellness Incentive Program
We encourage our employees to participate in the Wellness Incentive with Vitality. Employees who earn the Wellness Incentive receive a $600 HSA deposit or premium reduction the following year.
Nurse Liaison Program
The Nurse Liaison Program connects employees and their families to a registered nurse. The Nurse Liaison Program is free and confidential. Employees can discuss nutrition, weight loss, illness, disease prevention, mental health and more. Free blood pressure, body mass index and weight screenings are also available.
Financial Well-Being

GuidanceResources - Employee Assistance Program
All employees and their household members can use the
Employee Assistance Program (EAP). The EAP provides employees and their household members with free resources, including six free, confidential counseling sessions per year, per incident.
Resources for Reducing Burnout
As passionate as we may feel about our work, we are all susceptible to burnout if we fail to exercise good self-care and relaxation techniques. Burnout is a constant feeling of physical, mental, and/or emotional exhaustion and pessimism in the workplace. In addition to the other resources listed in this section, the city's insurance providers offer services that can help you reduce burnout in your life.
Professional Well-Being
We offer training and professional development opportunities to all employees. The Learning & Development team provides a variety of professional development opportunities. Employees can complete training through Workday Learning and Denver Peak Academy.
We also offer an education refund program to employees.
