Stairways Chosen "Best Places To Work" In PA 2006
No. 15 in large company category.


Stairways Behavioral Health was once again named as one of the Best Places to Work in PA. The awards program, created in 2000, is one of the first of its kind offered by a state in the country. The competition is open to both for-profit and non-profit organizations.

This is the second consecutive year Stairways has been chosen to receive the award. In 2005, Stairways ranked 23rd in the state in the large company category. Stairways moved up eight places in 2006 and ranks 15. 

The program is a public/private partnership of Team Pennsylvania Foundation, the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry, and the Central Penn Business Journal. 

This statewide survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Pennsylvania, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses. The Best Places to Work in PA program is made up of 100 companies split into two groups: 50 medium-sized companies (25-250 employees) and 50 large-sized companies (251 or more employees). Stairways has been named one of the Best Places to Work in PA in the large category.

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

- Have at least 25 employees in Pennsylvania;

- Be a for-profit or not-for-profit business;

- Be a publicly or privately held business;

- Have a facility in Pennsylvania; and

- Be in good standing with Commonwealth agencies under the Governor’s jurisdiction.

Companies from across the state entered the two-part process to determine the 100 Best Places to Work in PA. 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. Nearly 20,000 Pennsylvania employees filled out the survey. 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 Pennsylvania with assistance from ModernThink LLC, who analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.

In addition to the public/private partnership, Team Pennsylvania Foundation and Sovereign Bank are the program's presenting sponsors. E.K. McConkey & Co. Insurance, Rising Sun Consultants and JPL Productions are additional sponsors of the program.
