Cost: Participants pay $59 (Benefit Options Wellness pays the remaining cost of the class). 

Length:  45-minute classes held during a 10-week series
Participation: minimum of 18 participants required
Availability:   Weight Watchers can bring a series of meetings to your worksite at a variety of times through out the day.  Because the lunch hour is the most popular requested time, the Wellness Program encourages considering “off” times during  the day to increase the availability of Weight Watchers to fulfill the request (such as before work, 10:00, 1:30, etc.). 

Additional options:

There are two other options available to employees when their location cannot meet the minimum number of participants or if the availability of meeting times is limited:

  • A current meeting series may be in session in an agency near you at any given time - please call Weight Watchers for the schedule.

  • Weight Watchers will start a group of employees who would like to start Weight Watchers together but attend regular meetings in their own neighborhoods. 

To schedule a series or find an existing series, write to info@weightwatchersaz.com or call 1-800-651-6000, ext. 21.  Please identify your agency when you call.
