The Best Staffing Firms to Work For are also featured in the March/April issue of Staffing Industry Review magazine.

More than 300 firms sought participation in this year’s program, conducted by SIA in conjunction with Quantum Workplace. Each participating firm’s internal employees were asked to complete an online survey measuring six key engagement categories: communication and resources, individual needs, manager effectiveness, personal engagement, team dynamics and trust in leadership.

In order to gather statistically sound results, participating companies must have reached a minimum level of employee participation based on total number of employees. Companies in each size category were ranked according to their overall composite score. Winners were chosen based entirely on the survey results, and key findings from those results will be covered in SIA’s industry research.
