Merz Aesthetics has been recognized in the 2023 Healthiest Employers of the Triangle for a fifth consecutive year. This awards program honors people-first organizations that prioritize the well-being of their employee population.
Winners of the Healthiest Employers of the Triangle were recognized for their commitment to workplace wellness and exceptional health and benefits offerings. Even with many employers returning to the office or hybrid schedules, they have had to adapt their workforces to reflect the ever-changing views of the modern American office. Increased flexibility, work-life balance, and mental health resources have proven to be common trends among Healthiest Employers honorees.
Merz Aesthetics offers employees comprehensive benefits and a one-stop platform for accessing more than 40 different benefits programs. Employees can personalize their experience to maximize the benefits and stay on top of preventive care, connect with colleagues, participate in friendly competitions, company-wide step challenges and earn rewards. Additionally, Mental Wellness is a key focus at Merz Aesthetics, with an Employee Assistance program available 24/7, irrespective of healthcare participation, and free virtual visits for behavioral and primary healthcare. Throughout the year, Merz Aesthetics offers activities such as gentle yoga sessions, sick leave for mental health, chair massages, on-site meditation suite, and dedicated mental wellness focus time to support employee development and well-being.
“At Merz Aesthetics, one of our core employee value propositions is our Total Wellness Program,” said Natalie Prudente, Senior Director of Global Total Wellness, “We value the health and wellness of our employees and their families both today and in the future. We’re proud to take a holistic approach to wellness and offer more than 40 programs to meet our employees’ needs in the areas of mental health, physical health, and financial health. This is in accordance with our company purpose; we exist to fuel confidence by helping people look better, feel better and live better.”
Award applicants were evaluated across six key categories: Culture and Leadership, Foundational Components, Strategic Planning, Communication and Marketing, Programming and Interventions, and Reporting and Analytics. Completed assessments were ranked with the proprietary Healthiest Employers® Index, a 1-100 rubric for wellness programming. The survey is scored and powered by Springbuk, a health intelligence platform that simplifies data-driven decision-making with an intuitive user experience, predictive modeling, and curated action steps.
