CLEVELAND (April 30, 2015) — Excelas was recently named one of the 2015 Best Employers in Ohio.  The annual list of the Best Employers in Ohio was created by the Ohio SHRM State Council and Best Companies Group.

“Our employees are our greatest asset,” said Jean Bourgeois, President of Excelas.  “Being named as one of the best employers means a lot, especially since a large part of the evaluation came from the opinions of our employees.  It is assurance that we are doing the right things to make ours a positive and productive workplace that benefits everyone.”

This statewide survey and awards program is designed to identify, recognize, and honor the best places of employment in Ohio, benefiting the state’s economy, its workforce and businesses.  The 2015 Best Employers in Ohio list is made up of 35 companies.

Companies from across the state entered the two-part survey process to determine the Best Employers in Ohio. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company’s workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics.  This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation.  The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Ohio and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final ranking.
