Golden Apple Awards

Recognizing excellence in workplace wellness!

The Golden Apple Awards recognize outstanding employee health promotion programs in Washington State. The Washington State Governor’s Council on Physical Fitness, Health and Sports originally established the Golden Apples in the mid-1980s. Today’s Healthy Worksite Summit honors that tradition, by recognizing public and private employers across the State who demonstrate real commitment to their employees’ overall well-being.
