Southern Indiana Business Report
INDIANAPOLIS —The Indiana Chamber of Commerce announced its annual list of the Best Places to Work in Indiana on Feb. 21, and among the honorees are three firms from Daviess County and one from Lawrence County.
Included in the list of 53 small companies represented, with 15-74 U.S. employees, are Artisan Electronics of Odon and JA Benefits LLC of Bedford.
And among the 38 honorees on the list of medium companies, with 75-249 U.S. employees, are True Rx Health Strategists and TrueScripts, both of Washington.
The overall list of companies of all sizes came in at 125 Hoosier businesses this year, including nearly 40 newcomers from last year. Winning companies represent more than 35 cities and towns across the state, and the firms range in Hoosier employee count from 15 to nearly 1,300. The Indiana Chamber launched the program in 2006.
“Best Places to Work in Indiana not only recognizes our state’s outstanding employers, but also sets a high standard for other Hoosier companies by encouraging them to realize the importance of evaluating their own workplace,” said Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. “It is clear that a positive work environment makes employees more engaged in their job and in their company, which is what every employer wants and can greatly aid in employee retention – something on the minds of many businesses right now.”
The list itself is alphabetical; company rankings will be unveiled May 12 at an awards event sponsored by Ivy Tech Community College. Top companies in the state were determined through employer reports and comprehensive employee surveys. The Workforce Research Group handled the selection process.
Organizations on this year’s list that have displayed sustained excellence during the program’s 17-year history receive additional recognition. Hall of Fame companies are those that have been named a Best Place to Work in Indiana at least 60% of the time in the program’s history. Of note: Edward Jones and Katz, Sapper & Miller have been named to the list all 17 years of the program.
In addition to the May 12 awards, winners will be recognized via a special section of the Indiana Chamber’s BizVoice® magazine and through Inside INdiana Business with Gerry Dick – both of which reach statewide audiences. Additional program partners are HR Indiana SHRM, Indiana Department of Workforce Development, Wellness Council of Indiana and Workforce Research Group.
All companies that participated in the 2022 Best Places to Work program receive an in-depth evaluation identifying strengths and weaknesses according to their employees. In turn, this report can be used in developing or enhancing employee retention and recruitment programs.
The 2022 Best Places to Work in Indiana awards celebration will be open to the public. Individual tickets and tables of 10 are available at www.indianachamber.com/specialevents.
Additional Best Places to Work in Indiana sponsors are: trueU, the social media wall sponsor; Moser Consulting, platinum sponsor; CLA and LHD Benefit Advisors, silver sponsors; and Banning Engineering, Busey Bank, Formstack, Horseshoe Hammond casino, Jackson Lewis P.C., MCM CPAs & Advisors, Performance Services Inc. and TrueScripts, visibility sponsors.
