Essex has been recognized in the 2021 Healthiest Employers of the Bay Area, an awards program created to honor people-first organizations that prioritize the well-being of their employee population. We were selected because of our commitment to workplace wellness and our exceptional health and benefits offerings.

Our team was 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 using the proprietary Healthiest Employers® Index, a 1-100 rubric for wellness programming, powered by Springbuk.
