Helping You Live Well
At Gilbane, our wellness program is focused on supporting employees’ total wellbeing: occupational safety, mental/emotional wellness, financial wellbeing and physical wellness. Broadening our focus helps our employees achieve and maintain their best life at work and at home with their family and/or friends.
Safety/Occupational Wellness
Caring is one of Gilbane’s core values and is reiterated through our Gilbane Cares philosophy, which is built on the belief that everyone deserves a safe, healthy, and secure work environment. Wellness and safety are paired with the recognition that the health of our employees impacts their ability to remain safe and injury free at work.
As part of our culture at Gilbane, we start off every meeting with a Gilbane Cares moment. Each moment is a helpful tip or reminder about being safe at work and at home. We also host monthly company-wide safety calls, with topics ranging from heat-stress awareness on jobs sites to tips on how to avoid distracted driving.
Mental/Emotional Wellness
Nothing is more important than taking care of you. Without a healthy you, there is no Gilbane. We know everyone struggles with relationships, quality of life, and mental health issues from time to time. We offer a mental health and work/life service benefit through Spring Health to all employees to give you, and anyone on your insurance plan, access to the following services to help with life’s challenges:
- A set number of free, confidential therapy sessions per year with a licensed therapist
- A set number of free coaching sessions per year to build new skills, create healthy habits, and reach personal goals
