To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow a credit to small
employers for the cost of implementing health promotion and disease
prevention programs for their employees.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JULY 1, 1993
Mr. MACHTLEY (for himself and Mr. KOPETSKI) introduced the following bill;
which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means
A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow a
credit to small employers for the cost of implementing
health promotion and disease prevention programs for
their employees.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Worksite Wellness Act
of 1993’’.
SEC. 2. STATEMENT OF FINDINGS.
The Congress hereby finds that—
(1) more businesses are promoting disease pre-
vention, healthy lifestyles, and good nutrition
through wellness programs than did so in the past;
(2) businesses can save on insurance premiums
and reduce the number of health insurance claims
filed by their employees if employees would partici-
pate in a wellness program;
(3) wellness programs lead to lower health care
costs, reduced absenteeism, increased productivity,
and higher morale;
(4) one of the Healthy People 2000 national
health objectives is to have disease prevention and
health promotion programs in at least 85 percent of
worksites with 50 or more employees;
(5) a recent survey conducted by the Office of
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion reported
that 81 percent of companies with 50 or more em-
ployees had at least 1 health promotion activity in
1992 compared with 66 percent in 1985; and
(6) small businesses have less money to devote
to employee benefits and therefore shall be given
greater incentives to invest in wellness programs for
their employees.
vegetables in underserved areas shall 
mean, with respect to a project, that the 
project maintains a store that— 
‘‘(I) carries a full line of fresh 
produce, as defined by the national 
fund manager to reflect differences in 
project size and overall store size; 
‘‘(II) sells food for home prepara-
tion and consumption; and 
‘‘(III) at a minimum— 
‘‘(aa) offers for sale at least 
3 different varieties of food in 
each of the 4 staple food groups 
(bread and grains, dairy, fruits 
and vegetables, and meat, poul-
try, and fish), with perishable 
food in at least 2 categories, on 
a daily basis; or 
‘‘(bb) has a store at which 
at least 50 percent of the total 
sales of the store (including food 
and nonfood items or services) 
are from the sale of eligible sta-
ple food.
