Allendale, MI – January 12, 2021 – BizStream, a West Michigan-based company specializing in complex software solutions, has been named a 2020 winner for The Nation’s Best and Brightest in Wellness program. This is the second year BizStream has been recognized as a national winner.
The 2020 Fall National winning companies were evaluated by an assessment created and administered by SynBella, the nation’s leading wellness systems firm. Company entries are examined statistically for quantitative and qualitative data. Each survey was scored on a point system based on criteria to benchmark and improve wellness program effectiveness. They include outcomes, analysis, tracking, participation & incentives, benefits and programs, leadership, employee input, culture, and environment.
Some of BizStream’s wellness initiatives include:
"BizStream recognizes the importance of our team's health," says Mark Schmidt, BizStream Founder. "I strongly believe physical health improves mental health. We want to give everyone the tools they need to live a healthy lifestyle, not just for the benefit of the company but also for theirs. Due to COVID and lockdowns, this past year has been crucial for keeping mental and physical health a priority. It's been fun to see the team get creative with their workout routines, like basement gyms and virtual competitions, and it's been great to see team members sharing recipes for healthy eating. Most of all, I'm incredibly proud of the team supporting each other's mental health throughout this pandemic."
