The Psychologically Healthy Workplace 

In 2014, American Savings Bank embraced a new concept to their LifeBalance campaign — All employees were invited to become "life balance ninjas.”  

There are four ninja statuses: novice, warrior, master, and enlightened. Levels are earned by participating in healthy activities, ranging from walking 10,000 steps a day (fit bits to track steps where given to each employee that requested one – to date over 900 employees requested and received a fit bit); conducting "walking meetings;" to making healthy eating choices, etc.  

In the spirit of supporting the "life balance ninja" campaign the stairwell in the main ASB building was painted with inspirational ninja’s and slogans to encourage teammates to take the stairs versus the elevators.
