Best Places to Work in South Carolina is an initiative between Setcom Media Inc., publisher of SCBIZ and the Charleston Regional Business Journal, and Best Companies Group.
The focus of this program is finding and recognizing South Carolina’s best employers. In addition to the positive effect the award has on employee relations and recruitment, the driving force for companies to join in the program is the remarkable impact workplace improvements can have on their bottom line.
The program, launched in 2006, is open to all South Carolina organizations that meet the eligibility requirements. To be eligible for consideration, companies must meet the following criteria:
• Be a for-profit, not-for-profit business or government entity
• Be a publicly or privately held business
• Have a facility in the state of South Carolina
• Have a minimum of 25 employees in the state of South Carolina
• Must be in business a minimum of one year
Best Companies Group, assisted by ModernThink LLC, a workplace excellence consulting firm, conducts a simple, yet thorough assessment of participating companies.
The assessment is a two-part process designed to gather detailed data about each participating company. In part one, the employer completes a questionnaire and in part two, employees of the company complete an employee survey.
The collected information from both assessments is combined to produce a detailed set of data enabling the experts at ModernThink to determine the strengths and opportunities of the participating companies. ModernThink ranks the workplaces based on this data and then creates the Assessment Findings Reports that are returned to each participating company.
The goal of the Best Places to Work in South Carolina campaign is to raise the bar for our state’s employers and create the kind of excellence and employee satisfaction in the workplace that will attract talented people for years to come.
