SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- (NYSE: USNA) --
For six years running, USANA Health Sciences has been named one of
America's "Best Places to Work" by OUTSIDE Magazine, ranking No. 53 on this
year's list. Each year,
OUTSIDE recognizes the top 100 companies in the United States that help their employees
strike the ideal balance between work and play. These companies
encourage employees to lead an active lifestyle, are eco-conscious,
and prioritize giving back to the community. The entire list of
winners appears online at www.outsideonline.com/dreamjobs.
"We are thrilled that our commitment to creating a great
workplace has been recognized
by OUTSIDE Magazine for a sixth consecutive
year," said Kevin Guest, president of USANA. "We want our
employees to live their lives to the fullest and encourage them to
do what they love, and earning this title demonstrates that USANA
has continued to create a positive and engaging work environment
for its employees."
More than 700 USANA employees in Utah enjoy impressive workplace benefits,
including an annual profit-sharing program, free monthly company
health products, excellent health and life insurance packages and
regular health fairs. USANA's efforts have also earned it standings
on Utah Business Magazine's "Best Companies to Work For in Utah" and PR News' list of "Top Places to
Work in PR".
"We make sure our employees have everything they need to lead
healthy, productive lives by providing them with benefits such as a
fully equipped gym, wellness consulting, monthly massages and an
employee cafe stocked with affordable, fresh food," said USANA
Chief Communication Officer Dan Macuga. "Our Associates and
customers rely on us to come to work excited to do the best we can
each day. Having a supportive work environment helps motivate our
employees to do just that."
To find the best places to work in the
United States, OUTSIDE conducted a rigorous
eight-month vetting process in partnership with the Best Companies
Group to assess the policies, practices, and demographics of
hundreds of companies, and went straight to the employees to hear
about factors like corporate culture, role satisfaction, work
environment and overall employee engagement. The "Best Places to
Work" list represents the cream of the crop: companies that
cultivate a comfortable and collaborative workplace, enable their
employees to enjoy the great outdoors and take pride in their roles
in the community and the environment.
