Florida Marine is proud to give back to the community and contribute to the wellness of its employees at the same time. This September, Florida Marine sponsored an event to kick-off development of its wellness program. Both a shore side and vessel side wellness program are currently being developed.
Florida Marine recognizes that employees perform their best when they are healthy and that optimal employee performance is necessary for the company to be a leader in its field. The mission of Florida Marine’s Workboat and Shore Side Wellness Programs aims to develop healthier lifestyle choices to reduce health risk factors, improve employee health, and maintain a productive and active workforce.
