The Madrid Tax Agency has been honored with the award for Best Health Promotion Action at Work for its cardiovascular wellness project, highlighting reduced absenteeism and improved staff health.

The municipal agency, affiliated with the City Council, has received the prestigious award for Best Health Promotion Action at Work in the Cardiovascular Health category. This recognition was presented by the National Institute for Safety and Health at Work during the XI Open Meeting of the Spanish Network of Healthy Companies, held in Zaragoza.
The agency's director, Gema Pérez Ramón, personally accepted the award at the event in the Aragonese capital. The prize validates the comprehensive well-being and health strategy promoted by the Tax Agency among its staff, which is 70% female, with a special focus on encouraging healthy habits and improving cardiovascular health.
The project, involving 240 female employees across three phases, has shown significant results, achieving a 58% reduction in absenteeism linked to osteoarticular conditions. These figures demonstrate the tangible impact of the implemented measures in the workplace.
The Tax Agency emphasizes that these workplace health promotion policies yield benefits extending beyond individual well-being, contributing to enhanced productivity and institutional performance.
The Spanish Network of Healthy Companies serves as a platform for sharing experiences among institutions and organizations dedicated to improving employee safety, health, and well-being. This year's meeting focused on leadership committed to workplace health promotion, aligning with the objectives of the Spanish Strategy for Safety and Health at Work 2023-2027.
This recognition positions the Madrid Tax Agency as a benchmark for occupational health policies within the Madrid public administration, reinforcing its commitment to the overall well-being of its staff.
