Lasalle Network Named 2017 'When Work Works' Award Recipient

    CHICAGO, IL, May 27, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- LaSalle Network, a national staffing, recruiting and culture firm, has been recognized by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) as a recipient of its 2017 "When Work Works" award for the second consecutive year.

The 2017 winners rank in the top 20 percent of national employers in terms of programs, policies, and culture for creating an effective workplace.

"An effective workplace to us means that our employees can be themselves at work and are able to learn, grow and develop their careers with us," said Tom Gimbel, founder and CEO of LaSalle Network. "To be recognized for that by a leading industry association like SHRM is something we are very proud of."

The "When Work Works" award is part of SHRM's When Work Works project, a national initiative that helps employers become more successful by transforming the way they view and adopt effective and flexible workplaces. Created in partnership with Family and Works Institute, this award is a research-based initiative, which highlights how effective and flexible workplaces can yield positive business results, and help employees succeed at work and at home.

"These winners have reinvented their workplaces in ways that benefit business and employees alike, and are reaping the benefits in terms of employee job satisfaction and retention," said Cassidy Solis, senior advisor, workplace flexibility, at SHRM.

Companies were evaluated on factors associated with employee health, well-being and engagement: opportunities for learning; a culture of trust; work-life fit; supervisor support for work success; autonomy; and satisfaction with earnings, benefits and opportunities for advancement.
