WELLESLEY, Mass., Dec. 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Sun Life U.S. has received its
first Top Place to Work recognition from the Baltimore Sun, building on multiple years of
Top Place to Work recognitions from the Boston Globe, Hartford
Courant and Top Workplaces USA.
Top Places to Work is based on employee surveys conducted by
Energage, as well as information about each company's benefits,
culture, and diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
"Receiving this recognition in Baltimore is gratifying because it is based on
feedback from the great team at PinnacleCare, which Sun Life
acquired in 2021," said Dan
Fishbein, M.D., president of Sun Life U.S. "We take immense
pride in ensuring new colleagues feel included and engaged in Sun
Life and in our goal to help people access the care and coverage
they need. We have a wonderful hub of talent in Baltimore and look forward to continuing to
grow in this region."
In 2021 Sun Life acquired PinnacleCare, a Baltimore-based care navigation provider that
helps people access the right doctors, treatments, and care for
their specific medical needs. In July, Sun Life re-opened its
Baltimore office post-pandemic
with a new design that accommodates different ways of working,
including group collaboration, socializing, and quiet, heads-down
work. The new office design also offers amenities that provide the
comforts of home, including well-equipped kitchens, a treadmill
desk office, and a prayer/relaxation room that can be utilized for
worship, by nursing mothers, or any employee who needs time for
themselves.
Sun Life offers a flexible, hybrid work approach, allowing
employees to decide where they work each day. The result is a
balance of home and in-person time that supports people's busy
lives and fosters deeper connections with colleagues.
"We are pleased to be included in Baltimore's Top Places to Work as part of Sun
Life, giving our employees the opportunity to share feedback on
their work experience," said Dr. Miles
Varn, chief medical officer of Sun Life U.S. and head of
PinnacleCare. "Our integration with Sun Life has worked so well
because we are all here for the common purpose of helping people
through their health journey to achieve better health outcomes. I
look forward to growing our team with more of Baltimore's top talent in health and
medicine."
Sun Life's U.S. workplace recognitions include six consecutive
years as a Boston Globe top workplace, and three consecutive years
on the Hartford Courant's top workplaces list. Sun Life U.S. has
also received the Top Workplaces USA award for three consecutive years and has
received 100% on the Corporate Equality Index by Human Rights
Campaign for the last 15 years. In 2023 Sun Life U.S. was named a
Best Employer for Diversity by Forbes and a Top Company for Future
Leaders by TIME. For the past two years Sun Life U.S. has been
named a Girls Club Top 25 Female Friendly Company and received the
Great Places to Work certification. Sun Life U.S. is also listed on
the Bloomberg Gender Equality Index.
Globally, Sun Life was named one of the World's Best Companies
for Women by Forbes in 2023.
