 LIKARR Maintenance Systems Places in Boston Business Journal's Fourth Annual "Best Places to Work in Massachusetts"
Contact: Rick Greene, (508) 543-2138, Boston, MA - May 5, 2006 -- The Boston Business Journal has named LIKARR Maintenance Systems one of the Best Places to Work in Massachusetts in its fourth annual regional awards program. The honor recognizes the company's achievements in creating a positive work environment that attracts and retains employees through a combination of employee satisfaction, working conditions and company culture. The Foxboro-based LIKARR Maintenance Systems was one of more than 300 companies to qualify for consideration, making the top 20 list in its size category based on the results of employee-satisfaction surveys taken throughout the spring. "The company is very proud of its employees," said Rick Greene CEO, "and we're proud to be a winner of this award." "For the fourth year in a row, our results validate how the creation of the right corporate culture can create powerful business advantages," said George Donnelly, Boston Business Journal editor. Donnelly continued, "Employees are proud to work for companies that are about more than just business." The top 20 companies in four size categories - emerging (10-24 employees), small (25-100 employees), midsize (101-500 employees) and large (more than 500 employees) - will be profiled in a special supplement of the Boston Business Journal to be published on June 23, 2006. A countdown celebration breakfast will be held on June 22 to announce the final rankings - including the top company in each category. Additional event information can be found online at http://events.bizjournals.com/2313. The survey project itself was launched in January by the Boston Business Journal in conjunction with market research firm QMR Inc. of Wichita, Kansas. Companies were evaluated on the results of more than 20,000 employee-satisfaction surveys. Employees answered questionnaires that addressed such factors as their pride in the company, company encouragement, support and recognition of achievement and relationships with co-workers and supervisors. The results were analyzed and scored by assigning points to each question. "Accommodating employees' personal needs pays back dividends of loyalty and productivity," said Boston Business Journal Publisher Michael Olivieri. "The companies on our list recognize that their commitment to employees is especially important as the economy strengthens and competition for talent continues to grow." Olivieri continued, "The Best Places to work know the care of their employees is instrumental in maintaining the quality and reputation for services and products." "We strive to be open and innovative," said Rick Greene, "and we are proud to be recognized by the area's leading business journal as one of our size category's top 20 Best Places to Work in Massachusetts." |
