SUPPORTING our people to help them grow
Our culture of well-being, designed with our employees and their families in mind, is built around four pillars: balance, prevention, movement, and fuel.
Balance
We offer the education and tools needed to help enhance emotional and financial well-being. This includes life coaching and tools for mindfulness and stress reduction.
Movement
We make it easier for employees to be more active. By providing wellness accounts, gym memberships and virtual fitness classes, we help our employees integrate fitness into their daily routines.
Fuel
We make resources and programs available to help employees and their families better understand nutrition. Between nutrition tips, an employee recipe book and the ability to have fresh produce delivered to the office, we emphasize that making good food choices is an essential part of wellness both in and outside of the workplace.
Prevention
We provide our employees with programs and resources to help them keep well. After all, when we are healthy, we can better focus on our mission to help support animal health and well-being.
