The 2010 HERO Forum is dedicated to providing a cutting edge employee

experience. This is possible because the Forum has become the

corporate executives and mangers whose EHM
programs are the best in the country are at the meeting. This is
an extraordinary opportunity to meet and get to know those who have
crafted and manage the best EHM programs.
To enhance networking, learning and sharing, registration is limited to
230 individuals. In past years registration has
closed about one month before the event so early registration is
recommended.

HERO Best Practice
Scorecard – Version 3.0
in Collaboration with MERCER


Teams
from HERO and Mercer have worked together to enhance the art and science
of employee health management (EHM) benchmarking and best practice
through the creation of the HERO Scorecard V3.0. The objective is to
elevate the understanding, acceptance and accountability of EHM best
practice and establish the Scorecard as the assessment
instrument of choice. Part of this effort has been the creation
and operation of a large scale benchmark database. The
database is operational and is being populated by a rapidly growing
number of EHM programs.
The new HERO Benchmark Report is now available. The
Benchmark Report provides a comprehensive view of EHM programs
and practices used by employers, both large and small.
Included in the Benchmark Report are the aggregate responses to over 75 Scorecard questions that supply
comprehensive information on issues like program strategy,
design and outcomes. In addition,
results have been divided into benchmark groups, based on:
industry, size and geographical location. This
compares your program’s benchmarking and best practice development with
other demographically similar programs.
You can order your Benchmark Report using an American
Express, Master Card or Visa credit card. You will receive the current
Benchmark Report within three business days. Later you will receive
three additional updated reports automatically in March, June,
September, and December. The one year, four Benchmark Report
package cost is $500. For more details and information, click on the
Benchmark
Report link.
