For CEO Stanton Kawer, providing perks to his employees at Blue Chip Marketing Worldwide to promote healthy living was an obvious choice. “If I have happy employees, I have a good business, that’s it. Good work comes out of that, collegiality comes out of that, respect comes out of it. Profits come out of it,” he says.
These workplace wellness benefits include onsite yoga, discounted gym memberships, and readily available healthy food options.
Yoga Instructor Mariann Fishbein, who teaches in-office yoga at Blue Chip, has seen the camaraderie it’s created, “You have the CEO doing the yoga, you have assistants in certain areas and different departments doing yoga, and they’re all in it together; doing the same thing.”
Blue Chip Senior Designer Bleu Caldwell says, “It’s definitely good to be in a place that values our health in general and state of mind. You know, we have a pretty hectic workload and we’re fast paced all the time so just that reminder to kind of stop and breathe every once in a while is nice.”
