Edmund Optics® Recognized as a "Top Workplace"

Edmund Optics^® (EO), the premier provider of optical components, has earned a 2017 "Top Workplaces" honor for a mid-size company in the greater Philadelphia region for the 8^th year in a row.

Don Claffey, CEO of WorkplaceDynamics, believes that the survey not only shows the organizational health of a company, but also what is most important to their employees. Again, the research has proven that meaningful work, employee appreciation, and company direction are equally as important as, if not more than, salary and benefits. “Fundamentally, we believe engaged employees drive productivity and results,” Claffey said.

Over 39,000 employees from 82 companies in the area were invited to participate in an anonymous survey conducted by WorkplaceDynamics. Participants were asked to rank their employers in several different areas: Alignment, Effectiveness, Connection, My Manager, Employee Engagement, Leader, and The Basics.

"We take the responsibility to provide our employees with a productive, nurturing, and enjoyable workplace very seriously and being chosen for this recognition for the 8^th consecutive year shows that we are succeeding in our efforts," said Marisa Edmund, EVP of Sales and Marketing. “We appreciate all of our employees, their dedication and hard work, and will continue to do our best to give them a friendly and supportive work culture. This recognition is truly an honor.”

Top Workplaces are about a better way of doing business. Extensive research has shown that organizations that rank in this survey are providing their employees with a great place to work in an environment where they can be more innovative, and in a company that operates more ethically and serves their customers better. Edmund Optics is proud to be included in this group of exceptional organizations. Complete details can be found at http://www.philly.com/philly/business/workplaces.
