The Arizona Credit Union was Honored for Prioritizing Employee Well-Being

OneAZ Credit Union has been recognized as the number one Healthiest Workplace in America. This prestigious awards program honors people-first organizations that prioritize the well-being of their employees.

“At OneAZ, we are driven by a relentless commitment to associate well-being,” said Brandon Michaels, President & CEO of OneAZ Credit Union. “Investing in the wellness of our team is critical to ensuring that we are healthy in mind, body and spirit so that we can serve our members as trailblazers in our industry. Being recognized as the Healthiest Workplace in the nation is a testament to OneAZ’s commitment to creating a workplace where the whole person matters.”

The Healthiest 100 Workplaces in America is a nationwide competition that evaluates organizations across various industries based on six key areas: Culture and Leadership Commitment, Foundational Components, Strategic Planning, Communications and Marketing Programming and Interventions, and Reporting and Analytics. OneAZ earned its spot on the list by demonstrating a strong commitment to these principles, integrating wellness initiatives into its core values and company culture. 

“We saw some of the highest scores in program history this year,” said Haley Potoczek, Program Manager at Springbuk. “I believe this emphasizes the importance that employers play on employee health, engagement, and overall happiness. Wellness is about more than just physical activity. Employers must continue to evolve to create a positive work environment.”

Some of OneAZ Credit Union’s wellness initiatives include 100% fitness membership reimbursement to their associates and their families, matching dollars for daycare services, student loan reimbursement and a successful diabetes reversal program.

The company’s comprehensive wellness strategy is designed to adapt to the changing needs of its workforce, ensuring that employees are equipped with the tools and resources they need to thrive.
