CME Corp. Earns Worksite Health Award For a Second Year
CME Corp. was recently recognized with a Superior Worksite Health Award for consistently implementing programs encouraging employee health and well-being.
“At CME Corp, we understand that to bring out the best in our employees, we must provide a healthy environment and foster a culture that values the well-being of each individual. By encouraging a balance between professional and personal life, we lay the foundation for our employees to thrive both in and out of the workplace.” Maricar Caressimo, Chief Human Resources Officer
We received the award and were honored along with other Rhode Island businesses by BCBSRI and the Chamber at a Worksite Health Award breakfast. The event celebrated local businesses who have demonstrated a commitment to improving Rhode Islanders’ overall health through innovative wellness programs, as companies and individuals.
In the last year we have facilitated quarterly step challenges, two DietBet challenges, monthly BCBS Wellness Wednesday and Mindful Monday webinars, and monthly Employee Engagement activities focused on specific health/wellness/mindful topics.
Said Melissa Cummings, executive vice president and chief customer officer of BCBSRI “As a not-for-profit committed to the health of all Rhode Islanders, we’re delighted to continue our partnership with the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce as presenting sponsor of the 30th annual Worksite Health Awards. This event includes the opportunity to learn from each other’s successes and this year we have launched a new opportunity to highlight wellness achievers, companies that have taken unique, innovative and creative approaches to prioritizing wellness and helping employees achieve and maintain their health goals.”
Laurie White, president of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce echoed these sentiments saying, “By increasing morale and production, and decreasing healthcare costs and sick leave, worksite health programs are a win for all involved. We applaud CME Corp. for making the commitment to invest in the wellness of their team and for inspiring more Rhode Island businesses to find creative ways to help their employees live better, healthier and happier lives. We encourage other companies to follow their lead,”
