Maslon Recognized for Exemplary Workplace Practices
October 7, 2010
As an Honorable Mention recipient of the 2010 Sloan Awards, Maslon ranks in the top 20% of employers nationally in terms of its programs, policies and culture for creating an effective and flexible workplace. In addition, what makes this honor so special is that employees have corroborated this, affirming that Maslon is indeed an effective and flexible workplace.
This prestigious award recognizes employers that are successfully using flexibility as part of an effective workplace strategy to achieve business goals and benefit employees by helping them meet their responsibilities on and off the job.
The selection process is rigorous. First, employer responses are measured against national data from Families and Work Institute's National Study of Employers. Employees are then surveyed on their access to flexible work options, the supportiveness of the culture and on nationally tested measures of workplace effectiveness.
The Alfred P. Sloan Awards for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility are part of When Work Works, a national project on workplace flexibility and workplace effectiveness from Families and Work Institute in partnership with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Institute for a Competitive Workforce and the Twiga Foundation.
