Vermont Business Magazine The American Heart Association, a global force for longer, healthier lives for all, has awarded Community Bank Silver recognition in the 2024 Well-being Works Better Scorecard, representing a notable commitment to the health of its workforce and community.
Built on the Association’s 100-year history of saving and improving lives, the Scorecard brings together emerging research and input from leading experts to help employers create a healthy and effective work environment.
