Cooperative Response Center, Inc., of Austin was named the 2014 Refreshed Business of the Year award for businesses with more than 100 employees on Feb. 25 at the Austin Area Chamber of Commerce annual meeting and awards banquet.
This is the second year Mower Refreshed, a movement that encourages community members to make healthy living easier in Mower County, offered the award to recognize and promote businesses that find innovative ways to make healthier choices easier and more accessible to their employees.
“Mower Refreshed, a community engagement wellness effort developed out of Mayo Clinic Health System — Albert Lea and Austin, is committed to collaborating with businesses and organizations countywide that seek to foster environments that promote well living,” said Sandy Anderson, community health and wellness coordinator at Mayo Clinic Health System—Albert Lea-Austin. “CRC aligns with the framework that hallmarks Mower Refreshed: Engage, Equip, Employer.”
In recent years, CRC has ramped up its focus on wellness in the workplace to encourage employees to live healthier lifestyles.
