RailWorks Earns 2023 Aetna Workplace Well-Being Award

New York, NY (August 29, 2023) – RailWorks, North America’s leading rail maintenance and infrastructure solutions provider, has achieved a Making a Difference Gold level Aetna Workplace Well-being Award.  As an employer with a strong commitment to improving the health of our employees, we feature a comprehensive well-being strategy that our employees are passionate about.  This award is the culmination of our employees’ desire to live healthier, more active lives and make well-being a priority. 

Our workplace well-being program focuses on creating and maintaining an active lifestyle, mental health awareness and treatment, group and individual exercise programs, incentives for gym memberships, no-cost to the employee primary care visits, and much more. 

"What we do is hard work, and it is vital to emphasize the safety and well-being of our employees every day," says RailWorks CEO, Kevin Riddett. "Our well-being program is as much a part of our culture and business as the services we provide to our customers."

Our award application and well-being program was honored based upon our superior performance in the following areas:

• Commitment to proactive health screenings and prevention-focused health education;
• Dedication to physical, financial, and mental well-being through company-wide activities, challenges, and offerings through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP);
• Participation in the Aetna Healthy Actions program that rewards employees for meeting health goals in addition to a fitness reimbursement program.

This is the second consecutive year RailWorks has been recognized nationally by an insurance carrier for our commitment to well-being.
