the Fourth Year Cigna Named to the JUST 100
BLOOMFIELD, Conn., Jan. 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Cigna Corporation (NYSE: CI)
today announced it earned the #1 ranking among the health care
industry in the newly released list of America's Most JUST
Companies by JUST Capital and CNBC. Cigna placed #16 overall
out of over 950 companies, and this year marks the fourth time that
the organization has been recognized for its corporate
citizenship.
"We are committed to making a difference for those we serve and
for the communities in which we live and work," said Kari Stevens, senior vice president, chief
counsel and corporate secretary at Cigna. "Being named among
America's best corporate citizens affirms our commitment to our
stakeholders and encourages us to keep moving forward in driving
transformative change."
Cigna is taking many actions to help improve the health and
vitality of its stakeholders, including:
- Customers: With the urgent and growing demand for mental
health care, Cigna has doubled the size of our behavioral health
network over the past five years to give customers quicker and more
convenient access to clinicians who are equipped to serve their
unique needs, ages and languages.
- Employees: Our employees are dedicated to supporting our
clients and customers, and we are dedicated to supporting our
employees. In 2022, Cigna expanded its caregiver leave program,
which now allows up to eight weeks of paid leave to enable
employees to care for a family member with a serious health
condition, including care for grandparents and grandchildren in
addition to children, spouses and parents.
- Communities: Cigna's Community Ambassador Fellowship
program provides eligible employees up to three months of paid
leave and up to $20,000 to support a
community-based project. Over 30 employees have been a part of this
powerful experience to date. The collective impact of this program
reflects approximately 14,000 hours in volunteerism across five
countries and a significant investment from Cigna to support
community program development and execution.
