Topworkplaces.com is an opportunity to celebrate the organizations that provide their employees with a great place to work.
Companies named as ‘Top Workplaces’ are using the website to communicate the values and reasons why they are the best companies to work for in their local area. And Topworkplaces.com is a great way for you to find out more about the best places to work.
The companies profiled on Top Workplaces have been selected following a survey of their employees – and only the companies that employees have rated as the best companies to work for are featured on the website.
In 2009 over 1,600 organizations across 11 regions of the US will have had their workplaces assessed by employees.
The workplace surveys are conducted by a research company, WorkplaceDynamics LLC, and the programs are run in conjunction with the major newspaper in the regional area.
The Top Workplaces website is a great way to find great places to work in your local area. You can use the search function or the map to find companies by location and sector. Click on a company name to see a profile of that company’s regional workplace. You can see comments from employees about the workplace, as well as photos and a description of the company and its values. The areas of particular workplace strength are also shown.
If you think you work for a good employer, then you can nominate them for the Top Workplaces award. WorkplaceDynamics will contact the company and arrange for the employees at that company to be surveyed. We require that your company has at least 50 employees.
If you would like to work at a Top Workplace then you can search for vacancies using the link to the job board partner of the partner newspaper
Employees are sent a 21 question survey asking them for their opinions on 6 areas of the workplace:
They are also asked to provide comments about their workplace and some of these comments can be seen on topworkplaces.com
Companies that scored particularly well on each of these areas are awarded a workplace strength symbol which can be seen on the company profile page.
