Great Place to Work Certification™ is recognized worldwide by employees and employers alike and is the global benchmark for identifying outstanding employee experiences.

“Certified companies put employees first” says Michael C. Bush, chief executive officer at Great Place to Work. “Thriving employees increase revenue, profit and provide market-leading customer experiences. I hope that Certification Nation Day can inspire other executives to create and sustain employee-first cultures."

It’s important to honor all of the work that goes into creating a Certified company.

“Great Place to Work Certification™ isn’t something that comes easily” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of global recognition at Great Place to Work. “It takes ongoing dedication to the employee experience.”

Makpar is dedicated to supporting our employees through investing in their career growth and development, as well as advocating for a work-life balance. As a family-owned company, we know the importance of balancing work with family. Our employees find that this helps them find more fulfillment through their careers. We also base our company values on giving back to the community. This year we started Makpar Cares, our official volunteer organization arm where we celebrate and encourage our employees to contribute to their communities through earning PTO and other recognition. We’ve also launched Makpar University, which offers ongoing training resources along with our generous annual training budget to help our employees reach their goals. Many of our employees in their time at Makpar have achieved numerous professional certifications as well as Masters degrees. We pride ourselves in prioritizing employee happiness because we know that also leads to ultimate client satisfaction with delivering great solutions.

According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
