Wellbeing at ACM

Wellbeing Guiding Principles

Well employees and healthy work environments are important components to a highly functioning, efficient and cost-effective workplace.
Healthy lifestyle choices lead to job satisfaction and improvements in productivity, decreased health insurance costs, absenteeism, presenteeism, stress, and injuries, as well as improved recruitment and retention.
By providing resources, education, screenings, and a work environment conducive to health and safety, employees are better informed and are aware of their role in their health care.
Healthy employees have a positive impact within their families and on the health of their communities.
Organizations need proactive wellness programs that encourage employee engagement at all levels.
Employee participation in our program is voluntary.
