Mission: HEALTH

NASA’s Mission: HEALTH is the Agency’s integrated approach to physical and mental health, safety, physical fitness, nutrition, and wellness. The goal is to support the Agency’s work force, regardless of their working environment and in line with NIOSH’s “Total Worker Health” objectives.

Promoting and encouraging the health, safety, and wellness of the NASA workforce improves the likelihood that NASA’s programs, projects, and operations are completed safely and successfully.

To this end, NASA routinely and frequently provides information and resources to employees, with learning opportunities regarding diet, nutrition, exercise, medical screening recommendations, the importance of mental health, stress management, work-life balance, and working safely.
