As the nature of work evolves, mental well-being has become an increasingly important measure of organizational strength. Companies recognized in Newsweek’s America’s Greatest Workplaces for Mental Well-Being 2026 ranking stand out for embedding mental health support meaningfully into day-to-day employee experience through policies, leadership practices, and workplace structures designed to reduce burnout and improve engagement.
Five-star winners in this year’s ranking include Abbott, The Home Depot, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, USAA, Ziff Davis, Microsoft, Intel, Eli Lilly and Company, and Delta Air Lines.
Evaluation Methodology
To deepen the analysis, Plant-A partnered with Aniline.ai, a leading HR analytics firm, to evaluate more than 37 million data points across 120 key performance indicators tied to mental well-being. Factors examined included time off, flexibility and scheduling, employee assistance programs, and support for hybrid and remote work. The study also included a media screening process using the Critical Mention platform from Onclusive, reviewing adverse media coverage and public records between December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2025. Companies linked to significant legal, regulatory, workplace, or labor violations were excluded from the final list.
