Lincoln Industries has set itself apart from other manufacturing companies in a number of ways. Perhaps most importantly, it has been our commitment to our employee's wellness and our efforts to create a strong culture of caring. We firmly believe that a happy, healthier workforce creates a better end product, but others have recognized our efforts as well. We've been named one of the 25 Best Medium Companies to Work for in America by the Great Place to Work® Institute, and have made the list multiple years running. In November 2007, Lincoln Industries was chosen as a national Innovation in Prevention Award winner by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for its efforts in promoting healthy lifestyles in its community. Other national recognitions include:
- C. Everett Koop National Health Award - 2008
- Great Place to Work® Institutes’: “Respect” Award for Wellness Focus - 2007
- American Heart Association: Platinum Award for “Start! Fit-Friendly Workplace” - 2007
- Partners for Prevention: “Leading by Example” Company - 2007
- Center for Disease Control: Worksite Wellness “SWAT” Project 2005-2007
- Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA): Two Time Platinum Award Winner – 2003 and 2006
The Program
The Lincoln Industries' wellness program is called go! Platinum. Every employee may participate in one of four levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Each level is based on the following seven criteria:
tobacco use, quarterly checks (blood pressure, flexibility, body fat), participation in wellness events, health information update, health risk appraisal, blood profile, behavior based safety participation and work behavior. Those who make the platinum status are eligible for a company-paid trip to Colorado to climb a 14,000’ mountain. Last year, 77 people made the climb.
Overall, the program has paid big dividends for Lincoln Industries. Beyond the obvious health benefits for employees, the Lincoln Industries investment in wellness has resulted in lower turnover, lower absenteeism, higher quality, lower healthcare costs, and employees have reported they are better able to care for themselves and their families. Specific benefits of the program can be found on our Benefits page.
