Houston Chronicle Sunday

Celebrate companies that take care of their workers

-

It’s not too late to nominate your favorite company for the Houston Chronicle’s Top Workplaces awards.

The deadline for nomination­s has been extended until June 23.

To nominate your company for an award, just tell us what you like: the flexible hours, the perks, the benefits, the conscienti­ous management, the foosball tables — or maybe the nap room.

“A company should be considered a sacred thing. It allows people to earn livings, pay for homes and college educations, as well as pay the taxes that support our communitie­s,” Business Editor Al Lewis said. “At the Houston Chronicle, we celebrate area companies that take care of their employees.”

Last year, almost 77,000 local workers gave feedback about their employers as part of the Top Workplaces program. Anyone, from employees to customers or top executives, can make a nomination.

Organizati­ons must have at least 50 local employees to qualify. Private, public, nonprofit and government workplaces can all take part.

To determine winners, Chronicle partner WorkplaceD­ynamics conducts short employee surveys that will be completed by mid-July.

WorkplaceD­ynamics works with more than 40 major news organizati­ons across the country, and last year surveyed more than 2 million employees.
