The Maine State Council of the Society for Human Resources Management announced that Allen Insurance and Financial in Camden is one of 42 companies that have been named in the seventh annual Best Places to Work in Maine program.
From this list, all companies in each category will find out how they ranked at an awards banquet Oct. 11 at the Ramada Conference Center in Lewiston.
The 2012 Best Places to Work in Maine program recognizes companies that have established and consistently fostered outstanding workplace environments. Partners endorsing the program include: Best Companies Group, Maine HR Convention, the Maine State Chamber of Commerce, MyJobWave.com, and Mainebiz.
The assessment process, administered by the Best Companies Group, evaluated each company’s employee policies and procedures as well as responses from the company’s employees. The program also helps companies that want to improve their score. The Best Companies Group’s Employee Feedback Report is presented to each participating company, even if it did not make the list. The report summarizes employee engagement and satisfaction data, the Maine Benchmark Report, and the transcript of employee written comments. The report is used by many organizations to make significant improvements in their workplace culture.
