Kent State University's Employee Wellness Incentive Program, Wellness Your Way, allows all full-time, benefits-eligible employees to earn up to $300 in incentives by simply participating in healthy lifestyle activities. Disbursements are paid out within two pay cycles of being notified of eligibility to receive Tier One and Tier Two incentive pays, both in $150 increments.
For employees who have fulfilled their Tier One requirements by June 30, please note that your Tier Two activities must be completed by Oct. 15, 2017* for you to receive the $150 incentive for Tier Two.
