“We want Kroger to be a place where people feel supported and can take care of themselves, not just at work, but in their everyday lives,” said Tim Massa, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief experience officer. “This recognition is important because it reflects the real steps we’re taking to support mental health, offer strong benefits and create a culture where people feel cared for and respected.”<\/p>\n

Kroger was recognized in several categories for its offerings, programs and benefits to support associates’ mental health and promote a positive workplace culture. Offerings were evaluated in addition to the mental health services included in the retailer’s health benefits, wellness initiatives, paid time off and professional development.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1909, MHA is the nation’s leading national nonprofit dedicated to the promotion of mental health, well-being and prevention. MHA has spent decades researching mental health in the workplace, and in 2019, MHA introduced the Bell Seal for Workplace Mental Health to recognize companies and organizations that understand the value of addressing mental health at work and implement policies and practices that support employee wellbeing.<\/p>\n
