Its varied programs include: FedEx Safety Above All, FedEx Employee Benefits (with programs directed at demand management, utilization management, catastrophic case management, and disease management) Maternity Education Benefit Fairs, Smoking Cessation, Health and Wellness Centers, and Employee Assistance Programs.
