Well Workplace Awards Initiative

To advance an aggressive national worksite wellness agenda, WELCOA has developed the Well Workplace Awards initiative. Like the Malcolm Baldridge Award for Performance Excellence, the Well Workplace Awards initiative is driven by a rigorous set of criteria. Since its inception in 1991, more than 600 corporations, health care systems, public agencies and educational institutions employing over one million people have met the criteria and been recognized as some of "America's Healthiest Companies."

What People Are Saying About The Well Workplace Awards Initiative:

As our growth continues, we look forward to striving for the Silver Well Workplace Award in the future."
