PROVIDENCE – Providence Business News has announced the winners in its third annual Healthiest Employers recognition program.
The 32 finalists, which were chosen based on scores in six wellness categories – culture and leadership commitment, foundation components, strategic planning, communication and marketing, programming and interventions, and reporting and analysis – will be honored at an Aug. 14 luncheon at the Providence Marriott Downtown, which will feature ShapeUp Inc. Founder and CEO Dr. Rajiv Kumar as speaker.

Chosen from among 41 applicants, the winners had to answer a 75-question assessment that was scored using a proprietary system by Healthiest Employers Inc., which conducts similar surveys in roughly 50 markets nationwide.

The finalists have been broken down into five size categories, with the ranking in each category to be announced at the Aug. 14 event.
