Employers of Excellence
The Dakota-Scott Workforce Development Board (WDB) invites area organizations to participate in the 2019 "Employers of Excellence" program.
This is the fourth year that the WDB is working with Personnel Dynamics Consulting to offer the survey. Personnel Dynamics gathers the information and will analyze the data and calculate the turnover rates, growth percentages, promotion percentages, and benefit packages for each company. A total of 37 different measurements are analyzed. Each participating company then receives a confidential, personalized report detailing how they compared with other companies in the area and suggestions for improving their work environment. Additionally, based on the results, the WDB will recognize the businesses who received the top ratings.
There is no cost to the company to complete the survey as those costs are being covered by the WDB and area sponsors including the Dakota County Community Development Agency and Scott County Community Development Agency
All employers in Dakota and Scott counties are encouraged to participate. Contact WDB Director Mark Jacobs at 651.554.5622 for more information or
go to http://www.personneldynamics.net/survey.asp to start the survey. Deadline for survey completion is May 31, 2019. Winners will be announced in August.
