Abstract

So what do Disneyworld, fishing trips, bingo games, bus tours, breakfast, Detroit Tigers' games, and skating all have in common? They are all events offered to employees and volunteers through St. Luke's Hospital's WorkPerks program. WorkPerks is an employee-based program that provides opportunities for employees and their families to relax, mingle with co-workers, and have fun.
