Unique Home Solutions Honored for Excellence in "Employee Ownership" Communications

WASHINGTON, April 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Unique Home Solutions has been nationally recognized by the ESOP Association as the winner of the 2012 Annual Award for Communications Excellence (AACE).

The AACE Awards are sponsored each year by the Association to recognize ESOP (employee stock ownership plan) members across the nation for outstanding communications and educational programs. All 2012 entries will be displayed at The ESOP Association's Annual Conference, May 10-11, 2012, in Washington, DC.

Unique Home Solutions is an employee-owned company located in Indianapolis, IN. Unique became an ESOP in 2007 and since has developed an ESOP Committee to assist with the task of communicating the ESOP benefits to employees, employee families and the community. Unique Home Solutions won an AACE in the video category. This award recognizes excellence in the use of video to promote the ESOP concept to employees or the outside world.

"Communicating the benefits of an ESOP is an on-going process and one that we are always looking to improve. We are honored that the ESOP Association acknowledged us with an AACE award; we will use this as motivation to improve and innovate our communication techniques for years to come," said Bob Dillon, President.

AACE winners are chosen by a panel of five judges made up of both management and non-management employee-owners, each of whom has demonstrated active experience and interest in the field of ESOPs and employee ownership communications. Awards are based on: overall quality and quantity of employee owner education, contributions of employee owners, integration of the ESOP into company culture, frequency of ownership communications, involvement and/or response of employee owners, encouragement of ownership attitudes, clear explanations, creative ideas, graphic design, and technical quality.

It is hoped that the AACE program will be a motivating factor in encouraging more ESOP companies to share this valuable benefit with their employees. The core cause of The ESOP Association is the belief that employee ownership will improve American competitiveness, increase productivity through greater employee participation, and strengthen our free enterprise economy.
