We get annual bonuses (not a lot, but I'll take it!) based on the "health" of the organization, and part of the criteria is the percentage of people who complete a personal health assessment. So of course people fill them out because we want money.

The more naive of my coworkers see it as our employer caring about us. I think it is just plain intrusive, but I like the bonuses, too, so I'll do it. They also give us nonunion hourly people a $600 "work/life balance" allowance to use as we like toward things like exercise equipment, workout clothing, $100 for each 40-hour week of vacation, WeightWatchers--all kinds of things to enhance our physical and mental health--and the health assessment is mandatory to receive that.

have us bend over and check us, listen to our heartbeats. Then if you hire us just go ahead and put that tracker braclet on us and get it over with. I find this totally minding my own business. It's like Orwell 1984 movie. This should scare the hell out of people. Before long everyone will be required to wear tracking braclets so our city, state and fed government can keep track of us.

He was just wrong about who Big Brother would be. He didn't know it would turn out to be one's employer. I worry about the younger generation growing up being used to this kind of constant monitoring. Watching what size clothes you buy? Good Lord.

and this kinda stuff is going to be commonplace in 5 years..employers are cracking down on unfit employees. The insurance co's are pushing it on the employers....but the employers are looking at saved $$$ and employees are expendible today.

The corporate state controls our lives. Makes me want to buy one of those old missile silos out on the Great Plains, move in, and just hide out.

Will the heads of the republinazis explode when they realize that their favorite private, for-profit health care system is turning into Big Brother? They were so afraid that single-payer would do something like this, but we didn't get single-payer from Obama & congress, we got GingrichCare with no public option. It's the private, unregulated companies which are doing this.
