FONA International Named Best of the Best in Chicago!

After being named one of Chicago’s 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work For for the ninth year in a row, FONA went on to win the event’s top honor, being named Chicago’s Best of the Best for the second time in four years.

Luke Slawek, President of FONA International, said: “Our wonderful people are honored to receive this prestigious award. This recognizes the many investments we make in our culture for our great people to serve our great customers. I am grateful to represent everyone in our organization as they create a work environment where people can thrive and be successful.”

The 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work For award honors local companies that recognize employees as their greatest asset. Companies are evaluated based on their competency in the areas of communication, community initiatives, compensation and benefits, diversity and multiculturalism, employee education and development, employee engagement and commitment, recognition and retention, recruitment and selection and work-life balance.

The Best of the Best award is presented to the overall winner who excels in all of these categories— and this year it was FONA!

The NABR explains that the winning companies are companies that work with imagination and conviction to create organizational value and business results through their policies and best practices in human resource management. Winners are selected by an independent market research company, which reviews an extensive amount of quantitative and qualitative data, and an independent panel of judges. As part of the process, employees at each nominated company are randomly selected to complete a confidential survey about their work.
