Baron Capital Recognized with 2025 Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation™

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cigna Healthcare^® has selected Baron Capital as a recipient of their 2025 gold level Healthy Workforce Designation for demonstrating a strong commitment to improving the health and vitality of its employees through a workplace well-being program.

Baron Capital’s approach to employee health and wellness continues to grow and adapt to the evolving needs of its workforce. Through expanded access to preventive care, education, and supportive resources, the Firm aims to make it easier for employees to stay engaged with their health throughout the year. Beyond services such as on-site chiropractic care and flu vaccinations, Baron Capital has broadened its wellness initiatives to emphasize key focus areas such as heart health, cancer awareness, and mental health.

“At Baron Capital, workforce vitality is a top priority, and we are honored to be recognized with the Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation for the third year in a row,” said Emmanuelle St. Louis, Managing Director of Human Resources and Workplace Operations, Baron Capital. “Our wellness strategy is designed to support employees beyond the enrollment period, encouraging ongoing participation and informed use of healthcare benefits. By maintaining this year-round focus, we are reinforcing a workplace culture that supports well-being and helps employees feel supported both personally and professionally.”

Vitality is defined as the ability to pursue life with health, strength and energy. It is both a driver and an outcome of health and work/life engagement, and Cigna Healthcare believes it is not only essential to individuals, but also a catalyst for business and community growth.

Research conducted as part of the Evernorth Vitality Index confirms that those with higher vitality experience better mental and physical health along with higher levels of job satisfaction, performance and stronger manager relationships. With only one in five U.S. adults reporting high levels of vitality, employers have an opportunity to improve workplace well-being programs and support. A workplace well-being program that takes a comprehensive approach to employee health can be critical in boosting vitality and building a workforce that experiences better overall health and job productivity.

“Employers that prioritize workforce vitality — by addressing workplace stress, promoting healthy behaviors, and fostering a sense of competence, autonomy, and connection — are supporting employee well-being and driving organizational success,” said Bryan Holgerson, president of Cigna Healthcare U.S. “As a company committed to creating better health care experiences and outcomes, we’re proud to recognize and celebrate employers who are building cultures of well-being across all dimensions of vitality.”

The Cigna Healthy Workforce Designation evaluates organizations based on the core components of their well-being program, including workforce insights; strategy and culture; health equity and social determinants of health; dimensions of vitality; and engagement and experience. Organizations recognized with this designation set the standard of excellence for organizational health and vitality. Cigna Healthcare’s selection of Baron Capital with the gold level designation reinforces the company’s efforts and progress in 2025 toward nurturing a healthy work culture.
