Zanes Law Gets National Award for ‘Fit-Friendly Worksite’

Everyone at Zanes Law goes the extra mile for our clients – that’s no secret. What you may not know is that for the past year, employees here have been going the extra mile (literally!) for their own heart health.

The American Heart Association has given Zanes Law Gold Award recognition for 2013 as a “Fit-Friendly Worksite.” Each year, the AHA recognizes employers across the nation who go above and beyond when it comes to employees’ health. We are so thrilled to have been recognized for our work to keep hearts healthy!

Our employees have participated in several events throughout 2013 to earn this top-notch honor from the American Heart Association. In April, employees took part in the AHA’s Heart Walk, with more than 50 staff members and relatives participating. In addition, Zanes Law employees participated in the Beat Cancer Boot camp, working out twice a week for a month with the group and completing an obstacle course last March.

We also volunteered our time to participate in the 2013 Go Red Day, which promotes heart health, by wearing red and stocking the kitchen with red heart-healthy food all day. Our Director of Business & Marketing (Non-Attorney), Claudia Zanes, even chaired the AHA’s Go Red for Women event in November of last year!

Throughout 2013, Zanes Law replaced typical work snacks with healthier options such as fresh fruit and vegetables. Employees also have access to an internal gym to use before, during and after work.

Let’s hear it for our heart-healthy employees!
