Florida Staffing Agency Incepture Honored as 2012 Sloan Award Winner
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacksonville-based staffing agency Incepture has another reason to celebrate its team.
The company was recently named as a recipient of the 2012 Alfred P. Sloan Award for Excellence in Workplace Effectiveness and Flexibility. The award is used to recognize companies that incorporate flexibility as part of a workplace strategy that is used to increase both the business and its employees' success. The award is part of the national When Work Works initiative from the Families and Work Institute and The Society for Human Resource Management.
"We are thrilled to receive this recognition for our workplace practices," said Amy Ruth, vice president of operations for Incepture. "We firmly believe that our success is due to the commitment and passion of our employees. And our commitment to having a workplace that supports their needs is not only a core value, but it has also helped fuel our growth and ensured we continue to meet the needs of our clients."
To receive the award, businesses must complete a two-step selection process that entails an evaluation of the employer's practices and programs, as well as a confidential employee survey. Receiving the award signifies the organization ranks in the top 20 percent of companies for policies, programs and cultures that allow a flexible workplace environment.
"Our research consistently finds that employees in effective and flexible workplaces have greater engagement on the job and greater desire to stay with their organization. In addition, they report lower stress levels and better overall health," said Ellen Galinsky, president of Families and Work Institute.
This award marks another distinction that Incepture has been honored with over the past few months. In July, the staffing agency was named by the Jacksonville Business Journal as one of the 50 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in Jacksonville, as well as one of Florida's Best Companies to Work For 2012 by Florida Trend Magazine.
