ATLANTA,
March 26, 2014
/PRNewswire/ -- Randstad, the third largest HR services and
staffing company in the U.S., is pleased to announce it has earned
a spot on The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's list of Top
Workplaces. Randstad is listed within the top 10 large employer
category for the second consecutive year.
The Top Workplaces list is determined solely by employee
feedback from an employee survey conducted by WorkplaceDynamics,
LLP, a leading research firm focused on organizational health and
employee engagement. WorkplaceDynamics conducts regional Top
Workplaces programs with 40 major publishing partners across the
United States.
According to the Top Workplaces survey, Randstad ranked
highest in comparison to its peer group in leaving employees
feeling well-informed about important decisions, encouraging new
ideas and operating by strong values and ethics. In addition,
Randstad employees cited high confidence that the company is going
in the right direction and, most importantly, felt that they are
genuinely appreciated, part of something meaningful and confident
about their own future at Randstad.
"We are delighted to once again be recognized among
Atlanta's top employers. As
a strategic HR partner to thousands of clients across the country,
we believe strongly in the power of employee engagement in driving
superior outcomes, so we are particularly honored to receive
recognition for our efforts in engaging our own internal staff,"
said Linda Galipeau, CEO of Randstad
North America. "This designation truly reflects our corporate
culture, core values and belief in building a work environment that
fosters our employees' success."
Galipeau continued, "We know that our employees drive the
high level of service we provide to our clients and the thousands
of professionals and job seekers with whom we work. We strive to
create programs and opportunities that allow our employees to grow
with us as we continue to provide innovative, industry-leading HR
services and staffing solutions that our customers depend on. I am
pleased to share this recognition with everyone who makes Randstad
an exceptional company."
Randstad is proud to call Atlanta home to its U.S.-based headquarters,
after planting roots in the thriving city over a decade ago. The
choice to make Atlanta our first
location in our International expansion into the U.S. was based on
its history of being an economically strong and diverse region,
among many other factors. Since then, we are pleased to have made
our own contributions to the welfare of the city, driving economic
and job growth for the area. Today, we employ nearly 800
internal workers through our over 50 locations across the metro
Atlanta area, while facilitating
the employment of thousands of workers at companies throughout
Atlanta.
