CINCINNATI—Fifth Third Bank is pleased to announce it has been named one of the Nation’s Best and Brightest in Wellness by the National Association for Business Resources (NABR). The companies who made this list prioritize employee health, well-being, and workplace culture.
"We are committed to holistically supporting employees’ overall well-being, including their health and financial wellness, based on their input," said Nancy Pinckney, chief human resources officer. "We strive to offer innovative programs that make a real difference in their lives."
In response to employees’ feedback from surveys, the Bank recently enhanced its adoption reimbursement benefit, bereavement leave and employee stock purchase plan. It also made updates to its wellness and employee assistance programs. The Bank also offers employees virtual and maternity concierge services in addition to on-site concierges in larger locations, as well as subsidized back-up care for children and elder adults.
The Nation’s Best and Brightest in Wellness winning companies were evaluated by an assessment created and administered by a leading wellness research firm. Each entry was examined statistically for quantitative and qualitative data. Each survey was scored on a point system based upon criteria to benchmark and improve wellness program effectiveness. They include outcomes, analysis, tracking, participation and incentives, benefits and programs, leadership, employee input, culture, and environment.
Jennifer Kluge, president and CEO of NABR and the Best and Brightest Programs, noted that Fifth Third and the companies on the list have prioritized making a significant impact on their culture.
