WARSAW — Four Parkview hospitals are being recognized among the Best Places to Work in Indiana: Parkview Huntington Hospital, Parkview Noble Hospital, Parkview Wabash Hospital and Parkview Whitley Hospital, which includes Parkview Warsaw.

The thirteenth annual program was created by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce and Best Companies Group.

The statewide survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in Indiana, benefiting the state’s economy, workforce and businesses.

“We are honored to have several of our hospitals named among the state’s best employers,” said Mike Packnett, president and CEO, Parkview Health. “We are fortunate to have outstanding leaders at all our hospitals and facilities throughout the region. Those leaders and their teams have created a culture that truly values co-worker engagement, world-class teamwork and a dedication to excellence, and I have no doubt those principles led to this honor.”

To be considered for participation, companies had to fulfill the following eligibility requirements:

• Be a for-profit, not-for-profit business or government entity;
• Be a publicly or privately held business;
• Have a facility in Indiana;
• Have at least 15 employees working in Indiana;
• Be in business a minimum of 1 year.

Companies from across the state entered the two-part survey process to determine the Best Places to Work in Indiana.

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 percent 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 percent of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final rankings.

Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Indiana, analyzed the data and determined the final rankings.

The final rankings will be announced at an awards dinner on Thursday, May 3, at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, then published in the May-June issue of the Indiana Chamber’s BizVoice magazine.
