National Office Furniture Receives American Heart Association’s Workplace Health Achievement Award
National Office Furniture, a unit of Kimball International, Inc., has been recognized by the American Heart Association as achieving Bronze level status through their Workplace Health Achievement Index. This achievement is bestowed upon companies that take significant steps to build a culture of health in the workplace.
Using science-based best practices, the American Heart Association evaluates the overall quality and magnitude of workplace health programs. Through this process, they calculate an average heart health score for employees of participating companies. Companies then receive benchmarking reports, allowing them to identify potential areas of improvement so that they can advance their annual performance and recognition, as well as employee health.
“We are truly honored to receive this recognition,” said Angie Kleinhelter, National’s Director of Human Resources. “We have a passion that our employees are the healthiest they can be for their families, friends, and their careers. We look forward to continuing on our wellness journey.”
National’s dedication to workplace health is evident through their on-site activities, health club reimbursement programs, and daily wellness opportunities. Health and wellness screenings are offered to all employees and company sponsored yoga and exercises classes are also available. National is committed to changing corporate culture by motivating employees to increase their activity levels and encouraging smart eating choices.
