Con-way Inc. Wins National Award for Workplace Wellness Program

Company Named "Silver" Winner of Health at Work Award Given by ComPsych R
Corp.

SAN MATEO, Calif. - Oct. 2, 2007 - Con-way Inc. (NYSE:CNW) announced today
that it has been named a silver winner in the third annual Health at Work
Award, sponsored by ComPsychR Corporation. Con-way received the award for
its formalized company wellness initiative. The initiative promotes improved
health and fitness for the trucking company's employees through an
integrated program of on-site counseling, health risk assessment and
education, early injury intervention coaching and injury prevention
training.

ComPsych Corporation is the world's largest provider of employee assistance
programs and is the worldwide leader in GuidanceResourcesR (EAPs, behavioral
health, work-life, wellness and crisis intervention services). Con-way is a
$4.7 billion freight transportation and logistics services company
headquartered in San Mateo, Calif.

Winners were selected based on their wellness program's comprehensiveness,
delivery, promotion, participation rates and results achieved, according to
Dr. Richard A. Chaifetz, chairman and CEO, ComPsych.

"Employers continue to advance their wellness programs in the mission to
control health costs. This year's entries showed a great deal of ingenuity,
with programs aimed at both getting employees involved and keeping them
engaged," said Dr. Chaifetz. "Con-way stood out because it brought together
new specialized staff, outside vendors and internally created programs and
integrated these components into a unique and effective initiative that has
been embraced by employees and is reducing health care costs. We applaud
Con-way for achieving meaningful advances in health and wellness in the
workplace, and improving the lives of employees."

"The business of moving freight is one that comes with everyday physical
demands on our employees," said Robert Petrancosta, vice president, safety
and environmental compliance, Con-way Freight. "Helping our employees
properly prepare for and manage the physical aspects of the job, while
providing them with resources to improve their overall health, not only
reduces health care costs and lost work days, but improves morale. We found
that our employees truly do want to improve their health - inside and
outside of the workplace. This program has given them the knowledge,
motivation and incentive to do so."

The company initiated the program within its largest operating unit,
less-than-truckload freight carrier Con-way Freight, piloting it in Los
Angeles, one of the company's largest service centers. In the first year,
the program produced an 80 percent decrease in worker's compensation costs
and a 75 percent decrease in lost work days. Based on the success of the
pilot, the company decided to expand the program to include more than 20 of
its freight service centers and major office locations in the United States.

Highlights of Con-way's health and wellness promotion programs include:

. Deployment of dedicated, highly qualified, full-time wellness
coaches on site at company facilities
. Over 95 percent of employees participated in initial voluntary
health risk assessments with their coaches
. More than 80 percent of employees met with wellness coaches at least
six times during the year to evaluate progress
. Wide adoption of proactive injury prevention training and early
injury intervention practices
. Growing employee adoption of weight management and smoking cessation
initiatives

The Health at Work Awards are sponsored by ComPsych and its HealthyGuidance
program. HealthyGuidance addresses the full continuum of emotional and
physical health for employees and targets the behaviors that drive unhealthy
lifestyles. A natural extension of the employee assistance program (EAP),
HealthyGuidance empowers employees to make healthy lifestyle changes while
helping them overcome barriers to success such as emotional and mental
health issues.
