Wellness at Babson

At Babson, we make the health and wellness of our employees a priority, and are constantly working on creating new ways to educate, promote, and empower members of the community to make positive lifestyle choices.

Babson recognizes that a happy and healthy faculty and staff population leads to a more engaged and productive community. It’s important to us that all employees have opportunities to learn, develop, and grow not only professionally, but also personally.

Wellness programs at Babson encompass physical, mental, emotional, financial, nutritional, spiritual, environmental, social, and intellectual topics in order to provide a holistic approach to health and wellness. Babson’s wellness programs help employees to be well not only while they’re at Babson, but throughout their lives.

Employee Praise for Babson’s Wellness Programs

“I want to thank HR for launching the Masters Swim program. In the first few months I’ve lost a few pounds, feel great, and most mornings I’m at my desk by 8 a.m. ready to go and feeling no pressure to exercise during my lunch hour!”

“I want to thank the Wellness Team for bringing in such a great instructor for Boot Camp. He facilitates a safe, supportive, and yet challenging class, focuses on the individual needs and goals of each participant and encourages all of us to achieve our personal best!”

“I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I love the running program. I have been trying on my own to do the Couch to 5k program for five years now and have failed to complete it. This was the first time I was able to accomplish a life goal and I owe it all to the program and Babson. Without the instructor to coach me and Babson’s great employees to motivate me, this would not have happened. I have lost weight, am more confident in myself, and am happier to be around!”
