Take advantage of a free and exciting opportunity for your organization to be recognized nationally for flexible and effective workplace practices. Through April 16, all Kentucky employers can apply for the Alfred P. Sloan Awards for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility.
The Awards are part of When Work Works, a national, community-based initiative to highlight the importance of workplace flexibility as a strategy to enhance businesses’ competitive advantage and to help both employers and employees succeed. In 2009, Kentucky had 38 Award winners, and in 2010 we are hoping to increase that number.
Applying for the award is free and the online questionnaire for employers takes about 30 minutes to complete. All applicants receive valuable benchmarking reports that can be used in promotional materials or used as a tool to shape business practices. Award winners are recognized in the Congressional Record, in local media, and at an award ceremony. In addition, winners can promote this prestigious award in marketing materials and use as a tool to help recruit talent.
