Drexel was listed among nine honorees in the large employers’ category (1,500 to 4,999 employees).

In the Business Journal’s write-up about this accolade, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer Megan Weyler explained: “�԰ɵ��� offered 165 wellness programs or activities onsite last year.

When asked about implementing new initiatives because of the COVID-19 outbreak, Weyler said, “Our brand new Ten-at-10 Wellness Program, which launched in April in response to the social isolation and mental health challenges of COVID-19, encourages maintaining meaningful connections with colleagues while completing life-sustaining activities that promote physical and emotional well-being.
