Midland Information Resources Named Best Workplace by PIA

Press release from the issuing company

Davenport, Iowa – Midland Information Resources, a global provider of media management solutions, has been awarded the Best Workplace in the Americas designation, Best of the Best 2012, for their exemplary human resources practices. PIA looks to specifically honor printing companies that provide a superior work environment. This year marks the thirteenth year of the Best Workplace in the Americas program and the twelfth year Midland has been awarded a Best Workplace recognition.

A panel of highly respected HR professionals with decades of experience in the graphic arts industry reviewed the submissions. All of the winning companies actively show their employees that they care about their work environment, their personal goals and ambitions, as well as the needs of the company. Applicants were judged on eight criteria: Management Practices; Work Environment; Training and Development Opportunities; Financial Security; Workplace Health and Safety; Work-Life Balance; Recognition and Rewards; and Health and Wellness Programs.

"Being named The Best of the Best Workplace in America is quite the recognition," said Laura Soderstrom, Midland's Human Resources Manager. "Receiving this award for the twelfth straight year is a true sign that we continue to evolve our workplace for all Midland employees and refuse to rest on our laurels. We are very proud of the work we do, and are constantly looking for ways to improve the time employees spend both at the office and outside of the office. We are honored to have received this award and look forward to continuing our pursuit of The Best Workplace in America for years to come."

Michael Makin, president and CEO of Printing Industries of America, agrees.  "Best of the Best winners routinely exhibit the highest commitment to success in many ways, but particularly through their employees. Congratulations to Midland Information Resources."
