Wellness Incentives

Inspire everyday healthy habits

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

The psychology of workplace well-being

Employee well-being 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 well-being, they respond positively. It’s as simple as that.

Testimonials

What our customers say

It’s really meaningful to see CRPs who are out on the road by themselves, along with employees working from home, still interacting and connecting through the platform. It’s almost like our 4Refuel Facebook—bringing everyone together no matter where they’re working.

When we implemented Awardco, we refreshed everything and synced all service dates to our HRIS. It works flawlessly now—and the person who used to manage that spreadsheet is very happy.

The emphasis that Kodiak puts on people and employees first is really unique. We're always looking for opportunities to acknowledge the important and special and above and beyond work that our coworkers are doing.

One year into having sunshine, our recognition, feeling like we're recognized went up ten percent. I think that's just a true testament of how much it means to us. We do have those hard days. And again, the Sunshine Recognition Hub empowers our nurses and team members. It's given us a platform to recognize, those moments of of excellence.

The onboarding process was very encouraging. We weren't given the program and told to figure it out on our own—we've had someone to lean on the entire time, someone who helped us navigate this big, company-wide change.

I also nominate others for High Flyers—especially stakeholders who go above and beyond their regular work to help deliver a project. It’s important to recognize that kind of support.

There's plenty of research that shows the compounding impact of how when other people can see recognition, it creates that snowball effect. And so it just makes people work better together. They feel more as part of the team.
