Primary Information
Tufts is committed to health and wellbeing. We view our wellness programs as a core component of the benefits we offer our staff and faculty.
Well Time
To help employees participate in the university's wellness initiatives, benefits-eligible employees may use up to eight (8) hours of available sick time per calendar year to participate in approved wellness activities ("Well Time"). Well Time hours are pro-rated for part-time employees. The use of Well-Time should be scheduled in advance, working with the employee's manager whenever possible, and should not result in overtime for other staff. Read more about eligibility and definitions of well time activities. You may also be interested in learning about Wellness Events.
Jumbo Health Center and Health Coaching
The Jumbo Health Center provides health and wellness services to you, your spouse, or domestic partner regardless of whether you have health coverage through the university. Tufts offers these services in partnership with Marathon Health, a workplace health provider that operates health centers nationwide. Services include medical care, health assessments and coaching, and online health services. |
