Centennial, Colo. – February 10, 2023 – Cigna has selected AlloSource as a recipient of their Bronze level Healthy Workforce Designation for demonstrating a strong commitment to improving the health and well-being of its employees through a workplace wellness program.
AlloSource’s program looks at employee health and wellness through a holistic approach that encompasses physical, communal, environmental, educational, mental, and financial wellbeing. The organization has received local and national recognition for its commitment to promoting employee health by empowering its employees and their families to become active participants in their own wellness.
“We are incredibly humbled to receive this recognition,” said Michelle Zeppelin, AlloSource Vice President, Human Resources. “As a healthcare organization with a small company feel, we are committed to providing a holistic benefits package to help our employees grow their potential.”
Investing in an effective workplace well-being program drives value for employers. Senior executives surveyed as part of an Economist Impact study commissioned by Cigna reported greater productivity, stronger staff morale and motivation, and greater retention and loyalty as the most significant business outcomes of a healthy workforce. Additionally, a Gallup Report finds that on average, companies with high employee engagement are 23 percent more profitable.
“As a consultative growth partner, Cigna knows that a healthy workforce is critical to business growth,” said Cindy Ryan, executive vice president and chief human resources officer. “We are honored to recognize organizations like AlloSource who share our commitment to workplace wellness. Creating a healthy work culture is of critical importance, and many employers are seeing increased employee engagement, productivity, and retention as a result of whole person health wellness initiatives.”
The Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation, formerly known as the Cigna Well-Being Award, evaluates organizations based on the core components of their well-being program, including leadership and culture, program foundations, program execution, and whole person health. Organizations recognized with this designation set the standard of excellence for whole-organization health. Cigna is proud to honor AlloSource with the Bronze level designation for having made good progress towards a healthy work culture by establishing and growing their employee well-being and engagement program.
