Asuris earns national and state awards for worksite wellness
The Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA) recently presented Asuris with a gold rating for our employee wellness program. The Well Workplace honor recognizes the employee wellness program in Asuris, Asuris' parent company, Regence BlueShield, and three other Regence states (Idaho, Oregon and Utah). We're one of the few companies in the entire western United States to receive WELCOA recognition this year. Well Workplace awards recognize excellence in wellness programs among America's healthiest companies, and honors employers who fully embrace responsibility for maximizing the health and well-being of employees. WELCOA's designation indicates companies where employee wellness is part of the fabric and overall business strategy.
At the state level, Asuris received the 2010 Healthy Worksite Summit's Golden Apple Award for our workplace wellness program. This award recognizes groups and/or individuals who provide an organized physical fitness or health promotion program at the worksite for employees and their families. The Healthy Worksite Summit is a collaborative effort by the Association of Washington Cities, the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society and the University of Washington Health Promotion Research Center.
Asuris is proud to "walk the talk" when it comes to employee health and worksite wellness. Our wellness program is built around engagement, accountability, simplicity, transparency and reward—qualities we believe should characterize the entire health care system.
