Wellness Councils of America (WELCOA) has developed the Well Workplace Awards initiative in order to advance an aggressive national worksite wellness agenda. Like the Malcolm Baldridge Award for Performance Excellence, the Well Workplace Awards initiative is driven by a rigorous set of criteria and recognizes deserving corporations, health care systems, public agencies and educational institutions among “America's Healthiest Companies.”

The American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM) recognizes select employers whose organizations have been deemed to have exhibited exemplary health, safety, and environmental programs with the Corporate Health Achievement Award (CHAA).

The National Business Group on Health (NBGH) honors U.S. employers for their innovative efforts to battle obesity and promote a healthy work environment for their employees through the annual presentation of the Best Employers for Healthy Lifestyles Award.

The Institute for Health and Productivity Management (IHPM) presents the Corporate Health & Productivity Management Award for investing in employee health to deliver results to the bottom line.

The C. Everett Koop National Health Awards are presented by The Health Project in recognition of programs that improve health by reducing health risks, reduce medical care costs, and can definitively document effectiveness at these goals. Programs may have been developed or based at worksite, community, health provider groups, insurance, government, innovators, or other organizations.
