One of the first private, nonmedical businesses certified for on-site COVID-19 testing, AstroNova will run its weekly test lab for employees through summer’s end. The company also hosted a public vaccine clinic.
During the pandemic, myriad online initiatives such as telemedicine and virtual 5K races – a company running-club favorite – boosted wellness, especially among employees working remotely, including half of the workforce at AstroNova’s West Warwick headquarters.
