Newsroom Newsweek names CoxHealth one of "America's Greatest Workplaces" Posted on Aug. 22, 2024 CoxHealth has been named one of “America’s Greatest Workplaces” in 2024 by Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group. CoxHealth achieved a 4.5-star rating out of a possible five stars based on a large-scale employer study, including topics such as benefits, training and career progression, work-life balance and company culture. CoxHealth was one of six health care service providers across Missouri to be included on the list. “At CoxHealth, we believe our people are our greatest asset, and this recognition is a reflection of the dedication and commitment of our entire team,” says Andy Hedgpeth, vice president of human resources at CoxHealth. “Workforce is a strategic priority for us, and we’re proud to see that our commitment to our team’s well-being and success is resonating.” CoxHealth offers several programs focused on supporting employees in the workplace. Recently, CoxHealth implemented a redesigned health and wellness benefit package due to employee survey feedback. The new benefits package includes lower costs and deductibles, enhanced maternity benefits, simplified copays and more. CoxHealth also provides many workforce development programs, including student loan repayment, tuition reimbursement and assistance and apprenticeships for certain positions. “It’s always an honor to be recognized, especially on the national level, but it’s particularly meaningful when it comes directly from our own team members,” says Hedgpeth. This is the second year in a row CoxHealth has received this recognition. Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group selected companies on the list through a 5-part evaluation, including interviews, employee surveys, measurements of key performance indicators, media monitoring and more. Studies were based on over 1.5 million comprehensive company reviews from over 250,000 employees. The 1,500 highest-scoring employers were included in the 2024 “American’s Greatest Workplaces” list across 78 industries, which appears in the Newsweek online here.
