Atlantic Packaging’s commitment to employee well-being is earning national attention.
In a recent feature by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), ‘Well-Being Is in Everything’: Inside One Company’s Wellness Approach, Wellness Director Becca Schusler shares how Atlantic has built a wellness program that goes far beyond traditional workplace health initiatives.
What began in 2012 with onsite biometric screenings and a commitment to making healthcare more accessible has evolved into a comprehensive program designed to support physical, mental, emotional, and financial well-being. Today, employees have access to preventive care, health coaching, diabetes management programs, behavioral health resources, and Atlantic’s popular Nature Challenge, which encourages time outdoors as a pathway to better health.
Throughout the interview, Becca emphasizes a philosophy that has guided Atlantic’s wellness efforts from the beginning: “Well-being is in everything. It’s in the way that we work.” That mindset aligns closely with Atlantic’s broader Healthy People, Healthy Planet approach, which recognizes the connection between personal health, workplace culture, and environmental well-being.
The article also highlights the real impact wellness programs can have when barriers to care are removed. Through preventive screenings, onsite healthcare access, and personalized support, employees have identified health conditions early, improved chronic disease management, and found new ways to prioritize their well-being.
We’re proud to see Atlantic’s people-first culture and Becca’s leadership recognized by one of the nation’s leading HR organizations.
