Best and Brightest in Wellness™ in the Country Named for 2013

WARREN, Mich., Nov. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- For the very first time the National Association for Business Resources (NABR) has named the Best and Brightest in Wellness™ nationally. (See following list of winners.) This award program, co-presented by NABR and Wellco, is the premier program that honors companies and organizations that recognize and celebrate quality and excellence in worksite health promotion.

The 2013 winning companies were evaluated by using the WellCompanies assessment, created and administered by Wellco, the nation's leading wellness systems firm. Company entries are examined statistically for qualitative data and examined on a point system based upon eight criteria to benchmark and improve wellness program effectiveness: policies, environment, leadership, awareness-motivation, assessment-intervention, incentives-integration, measurement and health care costs.

"Our list of nationally recognized companies is impressive. Health and wellness programs are key to retaining a healthy workforce and managing health care costs. We are proud to recognize those companies that have demonstrated excellence in this endeavor," said Jennifer Kluge, NABR President.

"Wellness has progressed from entry-level, standalone initiatives to a key operational priority to benchmark and control health conditions and costs. It's great to see these deserving organizations lead by example with evidenced-based programs," said Scott Foster, Wellco President.

The companies that have been selected to be recognized nationally as the Best and Brightest in Wellness™ will be featured in the December 5, 2013 online edition of Corp! Magazine. The winning companies will also receive additional recognition and resources as a national winner.

The Best and Brightest in Wellness, a program of the National Association for Business Resources and Wellco, is presented annually in Michigan and now, nationally. Nominations are now being accepted for 2014. Visit www.101bestandbrightest.com to obtain an application.

The Best and Brightest in Wellness celebrates those companies that are making their businesses more healthy, the lives of their employees better and the community a healthier to place to live.  The Best and Brightest program provides yearlong education, benchmarking, assessment tools and interaction amongst the best employers.
