ACES and DCH has awarded CaixaBank the title of European Sport and Healthy Company 2026, recognising the organisation’s long-term commitment to promoting health, wellbeing and physical activity as strategic pillars of its corporate culture.

The distinction highlights companies that place people at the centre of their strategy, integrating healthy lifestyles into their organisational model and demonstrating that employee wellbeing is also a driver of innovation, sustainability and responsible business management.

One of the best examples of this commitment is Somos Saludables (We Are Healthy), CaixaBank’s comprehensive wellbeing strategy, which has become a benchmark in corporate health promotion. Based on a holistic 360-degree approach, the initiative embraces emotional, physical, social, nutritional, environmental and financial wellbeing, creating healthier working environments while encouraging employees to adopt healthy habits both inside and outside the workplace.

Rather than focusing on isolated actions, CaixaBank has developed an integrated wellbeing model supported by continuous improvement, data analysis and active listening, ensuring that its initiatives respond to the real needs of its workforce and strengthen engagement, motivation and a sense of belonging.

Among its many initiatives are programmes promoting physical activity and sport, emotional support services, nutrition workshops, volunteering opportunities and financial wellbeing actions, generating a positive impact that extends beyond employees to their families and the wider community.

For ACES and DCH, CaixaBank represents an outstanding example of how European companies can contribute to building healthier societies by embedding wellbeing into their organisational culture and corporate purpose.

The European Sport and Healthy Company title is awarded annually by ACES and DCH to organisations that demonstrate excellence in promoting sport, health and wellbeing in the workplace, encouraging other companies across Europe to adopt similar policies and reinforcing the role of the private sector in advancing healthier and more active communities.
