Gilsbar Receives Gold Level Workplace Health Achievement from American Heart Association
COVINGTON, La. (PRWEB) November 15, 2018 -- The results of the American Heart Association 2018 Workplace Health Achievement Index were announced and Gilsbar achieved Gold level recognition for taking significant steps to build a culture of health in the workplace.
The Index, created by the American Heart Association in partnership with their CEO Roundtable, uses science-based best practices to evaluate the overall quality and comprehensiveness of workplace health programs. More than 1,000 companies completed the Index assessment this year with only the highest performers receiving Gold recognition.
Gilsbar’s employees’ health was compared to the Association’s Workplace Health Achievement Index to measure the effectiveness of our workplace health programs as well as the overall heart health of our employees. The American Heart Association’s Workplace Health Achievement Index assessment is grounded in data-driven science and a quality improvement framework.

Our wellness team and employee wellness committee work all year long to provide tools, challenges, rewards and opportunities for each person to get involved right where they are.”
