WASHINGTON, May 9, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Universities Space Research Association (USRA)
today announced that it is a winner of the 2024 Top Workplaces
Culture Excellence and the Work-Life Flexibility Awards.
Top Workplaces Culture Excellence Awards recognize organizations
that excel in specific areas of workplace culture. They are awarded
by Energage, a purpose-driven organization that develops
solutions to build and brand top workplaces.
Workplace culture reflects beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions.
It determines how employees interact, and it sets the context for
everything a company does. The best cultures prioritize their
people and share many characteristics in common, including genuine
employee appreciation; open, two-way communication, open-mindedness
and innovative thinking.
The Work-Life Flexibility Award is provided to the top 25
percent of organizations where employees say they have work
flexibility and are provided with remote opportunities to balance
their work and personal lives while maintaining high
performance.
Dr. Jeffrey Isaacson, President and CEO of Universities
Space Research Association stated, "It is very gratifying for USRA
to win the Workplaces Culture Excellence Award and the Work-Life
Flexibility Award. The collective feedback of our employees
validates USRA's commitment to empowering employees with flexible
work options and cultivating a leadership approach that values
their input and contributions."
Energage uses a purely objective method to determine the Top
Workplaces National Culture Excellence Awards and the Work-life
Flexibility Award. The workplaces are divided into groups based on
the number of employees, and scores are then calculated solely from
employee responses to our Workplace Survey statements. Top
Workplaces awards are based on feedback from a research-backed
employee engagement survey. Details about how USRA builds a great
workplace culture are available on www.topworkplaces.com.
"Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for
companies, especially because it comes authentically from their
employees," said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. "That's something
to be proud of. In today's market, leaders must ensure they're
allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That's paramount.
Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends."
