1upHealth in the News – You Are Not The Rock: The Importance of Investing in Your Personal Well-Being

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, Built In Boston met with 10 local tech professionals to learn how they encourage healthy boundaries inside and outside of the office.

The word “human” appears first in 1upHealth’s core values, and that is intentional. To that end, we work to support the total well-being of our employees starting from the moment a candidate accepts an offer to work at 1upHealth. We offer a paid transition week for new team members, which allows them to take much-needed time off between jobs without the stress of going without pay or access to health benefits that you typically face between jobs. I could provide a laundry list of our benefits, from 16 weeks maternity leave to unlimited PTO to a $1,400 annual wellness stipend. But what it really comes down to is trust and support. We trust our team to do the jobs we hired them to do in a way that makes them most successful, recognizing that this may look different for different people.

—Emily Larsen, Director, HR at 1upHealth
