Focus Areas

With crews spread across job sites and office roles, E-J Electric needed a wellness program that could meet employees where they are—on and off the clock. They partnered with Woliba to drive engagement, offer intern-specific experiences, and promote healthy habits through personalized challenges. Today, participation is strong and wellness is becoming part of the culture, one activity at a time.

The Challenge

With a workforce spread across the country—ranging from field technicians to office staff—E-J Electric needed a wellness solution that could unify employees through shared goals while accounting for different schedules, fitness levels, and work environments.

Before partnering with Woliba, wellness efforts were informal and inconsistent. There was no centralized place to track progress, no visibility into results, and limited tools to build engagement.

The team set out to:

  • Increase challenge participation across departments and job types

  • Build a culture of connection and friendly competition

  • Support seasonal employees and interns with targeted programming

Expand wellness offerings beyond physical activity

The Solution

Woliba gave E-J Electric a structured, scalable platform to support their evolving wellness strategy—making it easy to track progress, recognize participants, and keep wellness top of mind year-round.

Ongoing, Inclusive Challenges
Participation has skyrocketed thanks to a consistent cadence of diverse challenges, including step tracking, mental health topics, and nutrition-based goals—all designed to meet employees where they are.

Real-Time Engagement Insights
For the first time, admins can easily track challenge data, recognize top performers, and fine-tune future programming with platform analytics.

Wellness for Interns
A record number of summer interns now experience wellness from day one, with a dedicated “Interns” department in Woliba, plus custom challenges designed to build team connection and drive early engagement.

Gamified Motivation
Tiered reward structures and company swag help fuel participation. Monthly quizzes, creative challenges, and non-physical ways to earn points keep things fresh—and inclusive.

The Impact

Woliba is now woven into the fabric of E-J’s workplace culture, with engagement growing year over year:

  • Challenge participation rose from 14% to 38%

  • Step counts surged past 50 million in the current year alone

  • Challenge volume expanded from 3 to 25 annual campaigns

  • Interns are fully integrated into wellness during their onboarding experience

The platform has also tapped into something deeper: connection. Employees now engage in friendly competition—whether it’s across departments or just between coworkers pushing each other to hit their goals.

What’s Next

E-J Electric is continuing to build momentum by:

  • Launching new creative formats like Survivor-style competitions

  • Introducing more ways to earn points beyond physical activity

  • Expanding use of quizzes and learning-based features

  • Exploring department-based team challenges to build cross-site engagement

  • Strengthening recognition and rewards with more personalized tiers

What started as a step challenge is now a growing wellness culture—one built on inclusion, motivation, and community.
