Larson Goes the Distance in 2024
February 22, 2024
At Larson and Company, we firmly believe in the adage, 'If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together.' With this principle at our core, the Larson Team is forging ahead with unity and determination this busy season. Cultivating a thriving company culture is paramount to our growth, which is why we prioritize equipping our employees with the tools necessary to maintain their physical and mental well-being. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the busy season, we actively encourage participation in a wellness challenge, recognizing the importance of striking a harmonious work-life balance during this demanding phase of our careers. Through our comprehensive wellness program, we offer resources and incentives aimed at fostering individual and collective wellness, thereby nurturing a happier and healthier company.
This year, under the banner of 'Larson Goes the Distance in 2024,' we are committed to realizing our wellness objectives. A decade ago, our firm embarked on a memorable journey with a company relay, where employees collectively strove towards a common goal. In honor of the 10th annual Larson Relay, many of our team members are now uniting in preparation to run or walk a 10-mile route. With daily goals encompassing physical, nutritional, and mental training, Team Larson is steadfastly progressing towards healthier habits that directly contribute to our firm's overall growth and prosperity. Each month, as employees diligently work towards their individual and collective milestones, they earn well-deserved rewards, reinforcing our shared commitment to reaching the finish line together.
Here are a few additional Wellness Program events that employees have enjoyed and benefited from during the past year:
- Hoops for Health: A sure shot to better health; Wellness program and incentive during the 2023 busy season
- Annual Larson and Company Relay 2023
- Move a Mile a Day Challenge for 30 days
- September ABC challenge: Activity, Being present, and Choosing fruits and vegetables
- Walktober: a step challenge between departments during the month of October
- 21 Days of Gratitude with a company gratitude wall
- December wellness bingo

- Desk yoga and mindfulness sessions
- gym membership expense program
- Healthy snacks and drinks in our break room
- Friday Fika: a moment to share a snack, reflect on gratitude, and connect with co-workers
The Wellness Program is just one of the many great things about working at Larson and Company. Healthy employees and a healthy company culture contribute to making Larson a top choice in accounting firms to work at in the Greater Salt Lake Area. #LifeatLarson
