The Chicago Tribune has extended to June 7 the deadline for nominations for our 15th annual Top Workplaces special report, in which we explore how organizations create and sustain a positive and productive culture. We’ll also compile a list of this year’s Top Workplaces in the Chicago area.
So far, more than 250 organizations have signed up to participate.
A Top Workplace is successful because its employees enjoy their work, embrace their mission and feel like valued teammates. This year those qualities are more important than ever thanks to a strong job market.
To qualify for consideration as a Top Workplace, an organization must have at least 100 employees in the Chicago area.
Nominations are open to all employers, including nonprofits.
Now through June, nominated companies that agree to participate will distribute to employees an easy-to-complete, confidential survey developed by the Tribune’s research partner, Energage, which will calculate the list of top workplaces. Last year, Energage surveyed more than 2 million employees at more than 8,000 organizations on these topics.
There is no fee to participate. Top performers will be recognized in the report and in an online directory.
To nominate a company, go to www.chicagotribune.com/nominate or call 312-878-7356.
