December 29 2014 - 10:30AM
Xerium Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:XRM), a leading global provider of
industrial consumable products and services, recently was honored
by Triangle Business Journal as one of the top 35 Healthiest
Employers for 2014.
In recent years, Xerium initiated its corporate-wide wellness
programs which offers incentives on medical plan premiums aligned
with employee participation in biometric screenings, weight loss
and fitness programs along with gym membership reimbursements. In
addition, the state-of-the-art gym at the Youngsville headquarters
gives employees on-site access to quality fitness equipment and
activities. Xerium also sponsors Wellness Fairs and free flu shots
throughout our locations while communicating with participants
through monthly wellness newsletters.
"We value each of our employees and believe that their health
and that of their family is one of our top priorities. We also
recognize that our employees' health and well-being is important to
the health of our business. I have always been a strong advocate of
wellness programs within the businesses I have been fortunate to
lead. At Xerium, we wanted to build on this commitment and
implement our wellness programs to also help offset rising medical
claims expenses, especially when coupled with the changes in U.S.
health care reform," said Mr. Harold Bevis, President and CEO of
Xerium. "We knew it was time to inspire proactive changes to the
wellness of our employees, and are pleased with the progress we
have made together."
