Tyson Foods offers exercise program for employees during rebuilding process
While the Tyson Foods Storm Lake turkey facility was being rebuilt after a devastating fire, employees had a chance to participate in an exercise program. The program was designed to help employees make sure they would be physically ready to return to work after many months away from the job. As part of the May cover story, Andy Hanacek sat down with Julia White and Evan Franzmeier, two people instrumental in the development and execution of the exercise program.
Andy Hanacek: It’s been 10 to 11 months since the fire, so think back to when this program began. How did you get involved? What were your initial thoughts, your initial reactions, to the program? What were the first steps that occurred in order to get the program going?
