The Alfred P. Sloan Awards for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility -- 2010 Winners Just Announced!
The 2010 Sloan Awards for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility honor companies that successfully used flexibility in 2009 to meet both employer and employee goals. This is the first award of its kind to validate companies' performance, programs, and policies with employee input, differentiating it from any other current award. A rigorous application and scoring process was developed to select honorees for the award.
The assessment used to determine the Sloan Award winners is based on the National Study of Employers [2] (NSE) as administered by the Families and Work Institute [3] (FWI). Sloan Award recipients are employers who offer flexibility programs, policies, and practices that are equal to or above the national average from this study and also have employee verification that these are carried out effectively in the organization.
