Providence Community Health Centers knows its nearly 350 employees work tirelessly to keep community members healthy, so the organization ensures employees are inspired to do the same to care for themselves.

To build health and wellness into the workplace, the company offers many incentives, including fun wellness challenges, cash for taking health assessments, weekly yoga and a supportive atmosphere to help employees develop lifelong healthy habits.

Melanie Gomes, benefits coordinator and wellness committee chair, says PCHC promotes good habits by motivating employees and promoting a camaraderie around making healthier choices. “We’re giving Fitbits to 10 employees who have been identified by their peers as champions of wellness here at PCHC,” she said.

As a health organization, PCHC aims to create a workplace where health and wellness are enjoyable, inspiring and encouraging. •
