It takes collaboration, commitment and hard work to be regularly listed among the Triangle's Healthiest Employers. But Railinc staff rises to the challenge every year to create an enduring culture of wellness for all employees to help keep their bodies and their careers moving.
Railinc encourages fitness, fun and accountability through its company Wellness Program, which helps employees and their families make healthy lifestyle choices and save money at the same time. This voluntary health promotion program includes:
-
a health risk assessment
-
a biometric screening
-
free nutritionist visits
-
educational materials
-
preventive care requirements
Employee spouses covered by Railinc insurance also participate. After receiving their screening results, many employees have made significant changes to improve their health, getting more active, losing weight and eating better. Railinc averages 100 percent employee participation in the program, which helped to offset increases in the company's health-insurance premiums.
The company's support of a healthy lifestyle goes beyond incredible health insurance and personalized health information and education. We offer various fitness activities and resources to help employees stay active, including:
-
Employee-led, on-site, yoga class
-
On-site gym
-
Free Fitbit Zip for all employees
-
Free membership at O2 Fitness
-
Company-wide activities like Fitbit competitions and the Railinc 5K race and fun run/walk
-
Employee-led sports teams, including soccer and cricket
Railinc's office is also adjacent to a greenway and just a short walk to a Cary city park, providing plenty of opportunities to get outside and exercise every day.
