Sept. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- MHBT, one of the largest privately owned insurance brokerages in the nation, was recently recognized as a winner of the prestigious 2011 Alfred P. Sloan Award for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility.  This is the sixth year that the firm has received this award for innovative workplace practices.

The Alfred P. Sloan Award for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility, part of the national When Work Works project, recognizes employers of all sizes and types across the country for their adoption of effective and flexible workplace practices.  Workplace flexibility—such as flextime, part-time work and compressed workweeks—has been demonstrated to help businesses remain competitive while also benefiting employees as well.

“Family and work-life balance are part of the foundation of MHBT, and we are committed to providing a supportive, flexible work environment for our staff,” said Bill Henry, chairman and CEO of MHBT. “By doing so, we continue to attract and retain top talent and have created an atmosphere in which employees enthusiastically provide the highest level of client service.”

The Sloan Awards are unique for their rigorous, two-step selection process, which involves an evaluation of employers’ flexibility programs and practices, and a confidential employee survey. All applicants are measured against national norms from FWI’s National Study of Employers.

“As a recipient of the 2011 Sloan Award, MHBT ranks in the top 20 percent of employers nationally in terms of its programs, policies and culture for creating an effective and flexible workplace,” states Ellen Galinsky, president of Families and Work Institute (FWI), a research think tank on workforce and workplace trends that administers the awards.  “In addition, what makes this honor so special is that their employees have corroborated this, affirming that it is indeed an effective and flexible workplace.”
