In August 2021, data showed that 85% of the workforce at Hendry Marine Industries were not participating in preventative wellness exams. So in January 2022, their director of human resources, Stephanie Koch, made wellness exams a part of their workday.
“We have 300 employees in the Tampa, Florida area and 80% of them are men in their late 40s, early 50s,” says Koch, who has been with the holding company since 2020. “My initial concern was that we have a bunch of ticking bombs. We immediately decided we needed a solution at least to handle the physicals our employees needed.”
