Is your company one of the best places to work? If so, USA TODAY wants to hear from you.
USA TODAY will recognize quality workplace culture in Top Workplaces USA, a distinction honoring organizations that are taking the lead in 2024 in putting their employees first.
Any organization with a workforce of at least 150 people is eligible for the award. And employees will do the deciding, evaluating their workplaces with a 24-question survey. Organizations will be surveyed through the end of November.
At a time when there continue to be more job openings than workers to fill them, a designation as a top place to work can make a business or group a magnet for top talent, boosting its performance and success.
"There are few things more important to most Americans than the work environment in which they spend so much time every day,’’ said Terence Samuel, Editor in Chief of USA TODAY. “At USA TODAY we applaud organizations that create nurturing workplaces where people can thrive personally and professionally. Through this partnership, we have a unique opportunity to celebrate companies with exceptional workplace cultures that put people first.”
Energage, a Pennsylvania-based research company that is partnering with USA TODAY, conducts Top Workplaces surveys for media in 65 markets across the U.S. and polled more than 2 million employees at over 8,000 organizations in the past year.
To compete for the 2024 honor, here's what you need to know:
How do I compete? Anyone can nominate any employer, whether it's public, private, non-profit or a government agency. To make a nomination, go to https:// usatoday.com/topworkplaces/nominate.
What's the deadline? The nomination deadline is Nov. 10.
Is there a fee? No. Participation is free, and if your organization wins, it will get the coveted Top Workplaces USA badge.
When will the winners be announced? The winning organizations will be published in March 2024.
Why participate? A tight labor market means businesses are having to jockey to recruit and retain employees. Top Workplaces USA spotlights businesses committed to listening to and centering their workforces.
Does remote work make a top ranking even more important? Yes. An evolving labor landscape where many are able to work from home means employees have choices far and wide. A top ranking can make an organization much more appealing.
Do customers care? Just as people want to work for companies that are considered positive, productive spaces, customers and shareholders also want to connect with businesses that reflect their values.
Who won in 2023? There were 1,272 winning workplaces in four groups featuring businesses of different sizes.
