The Davidson Companies Named Number Two Best Company to Work for in Florida
Jacksonville, FL, August 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Davidson Companies was recently named the number two best company to work for in Florida by Florida Trend magazine.
One-hundred companies were recognized in small, medium and large company categories. The rankings – the first statewide Best Companies list – appear in the August issue of Florida Trend and on FloridaTrend.com.
The Best Companies To Work For in Florida program was created by Florida Trend and Best Companies Group and endorsed by the Florida Chamber of Commerce, the Florida Association of Chamber Professionals, the Florida Economic Development Council (FEDC), the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association, the Florida Society of Association Executives (FSAE) and the Orlando Regional Chamber of Commerce.
“We are extremely proud of this honor,” says Sherry Davidson, president of Davidson Realty. “As a small business owner, I depend on the talents and skills of each and every one of our employees; and I truly value their contributions to the company. Therefore, we have worked to build an environment that makes our employees feel respected and happy in their jobs. But without great, dedicated employees, that environment would not exist. So this honor is really for each of our employees; who make The Davidson Companies one of the best to work for.”
Companies that chose to participate in the Best Companies To Work For in Florida awards program underwent a two-part survey process. The first part consisted of evaluating each company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure employee satisfaction. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration, survey and analysis process and determined the final rankings. Companies were not required to pay a participation fee to go through the online assessment process.
“We’ve highlighted the practices of companies that have established themselves as great places to work — including everything from how they train their workers to how they communicate and the kind of pay and benefits they provide. This is a great opportunity for companies in Florida to learn from each other as they go about improving their own effectiveness,” says Mark Howard, executive editor.
