Wellness Incentives

Wellness Incentives

Inspire everyday healthy habits

Incentivize and reward healthy behaviours that help employees feel better, live well, and thrive —at work and in life.

The psychology of workplace wellbeing

Employee wellbeing is not a nice-to-have perk, like ping pong tables or a day off. It’s foundational to everything you're trying to accomplish, such as productivity, engagement, retention, and performance.

When employees feel supported in their mental, physical, financial, and emotional wellness, they respond positively. It’s as simple as that.

I genuinely enjoy reading the daily kudos in Slack. Seeing the names and stories of colleagues going above and beyond is inspiring—it motivates me every day and reminds me why I’m proud to be part of PMG.

Recognition just reminds you that no, you are seen. Your work is not for nothing. You are appreciated. It feels great and helps you stay motivated, even when things are tough.

It humanizes our organization. I can wish someone a happy birthday in Philadelphia from my desk in Houston—because I saw it in the Awardco feed. That’s magic.

We've tied rewards to wellness in the sense that every year, we encourage our associates to go get their annual physical. If they show proof, they get points. It's another way to tie healthy lifestyles to what's important to us in the bank, making an impact with our associates.
