The CDC has officially pulled the Leanworks obesity calculator from their site. We pushed back against this discrimination and we won. Keep watch for new policies that prioritize genuine wellness instead of targeting people of size.

This is just another way to target people based on looks instead of character. Keep workplace policies fair for everyone.
I lost a promotion years ago because my boss thought looking the part was more important than doing the part. This needs to end.
Are you kidding me CDC? wasting taxpayer money to make people feel like second class citizens. Fix the real problems and stop bullying employees.
TOTAL B.S. keep the govt out of my health and out of my paycheck. treat everyone with respect god.
This is so discouraging. People should be judged on their work and nothing else. My size doesn't change how hard I work or my skills.
