A HEALTHY THOUGHT
‘For employees to be satisfied and grow in their roles, health and wellness is a critical tool.’
LISA AHART, Toray Plastics (America) Inc. vice president of corporate human resources and environment, health and safety
That attitude is championed throughout the organization. CEO and President Michael Brandmeier leads companywide Health & Wellness Challenges in which employees compete by keeping track of activities on their Virgin Pulse app. Contests range from tracking steps daily to developing better sleep habits.
Brandmeier spices it up with his own “Brando Bucks” so employees can earn rewards for their participation.
Having Toray’s employees more engaged in their own health and wellness helps build a sense of loyalty that leads to everyone’s success.
