Palm Beach County is one of the 2025 Healthiest Employers in Florida. It placed fifth statewide in the large employer category for organizations with more than 5,000 employees, marking the first time the county has earned a spot on the list.

The Healthiest Employers awards program is a nationally recognized initiative, honoring organizations demonstrating a strong commitment to employee well-being through innovative benefits, workplace culture and health-focused programs.

This recognition highlights Palm Beach County's efforts to create a workplace environment that prioritizes employee health and wellness. By focusing on mental health, flexibility and holistic benefits, the county continues to adapt to the evolving needs of its workforce.

Honorees are selected through the annual Healthiest Employers assessment, which uses a proprietary 1-100 scoring rubric to evaluate six areas of organizational health: strategy, culture, engagement, communications, programming and outcomes. Scores contribute to the Healthiest Employers Index, which ranks organizations within their size categories.

"This recognition is a testament to Palm Beach County's commitment to the well-being of our employees," County Administrator Joseph Abruzzo said. "We are proud to be among the top organizations in Florida and remain dedicated to supporting our workforce, especially when it comes to health and wellness."

The program is powered by Springbuk, a health intelligence platform that helps employers use data-driven insights to improve employee health and manage healthcare costs.
