In a year filled with recognition for our hashtag #ConnectedCulture, we’ve done it again! 🎉 H&R Block is thrilled to be named #1 on Indeed's 2024 Work Wellbeing 100 list!

The Indeed Work Wellbeing 100, based on a study by University of Oxford, highlights the link between associate wellbeing and financial performance. The study shows that companies prioritizing associate wellbeing tend to outperform stock market benchmarks. “I’m so proud to work for a company that prioritizes associate wellbeing and leads with a caring mindset,” said Melissa Holthaus, CCP, VP of Total Rewards and Operations at H&R Block. “Seeing the connection between our culture and company performance is truly rewarding.” At Indeed’s hashtag#FutureWorks conference in September, Holthaus highlighted our Connected Culture, comprehensive benefits package, and the "Way We Work" playbook as key factors to how H&R Block supports holistic associate wellbeing.
