Chicago, May 20, 2015 (Newswire.com) - LaSalle Network, a staffing and recruiting firm headquartered in Chicago, announced today that it has been selected as a finalist for the Employee Engagement Awards’ “Company of the Year for Employee Engagement.”  

The Employee Engagement Awards is a UK-based program that recognizes businesses that strive to put their workforce at the heart of their operations. This is the first year the awards are brought to the United States to inspire, connect, recognize and celebrate the talented people changing the way organizations work. 

“It is an honor to be recognized for something we are so passionate about,” says Tom Gimbel, founder and CEO of LaSalle Network. “When starting the company, I wanted to create a place where people enjoyed coming to work…a place they wanted to be. Employee recognition and engagement is in everything we to be sure that never diminishes.”

The Employee Engagement Awards and conference are presented by Manners & Murphy, a global employee engagement partner helping companies put their employees at the heart of their organizations, Sift Media, a digital publisher of global titles such as HRzone.com that inspires people to take the actions that improve their lives and livelihoods, and WeSpire, the employee engagement platform that empowers forward-thinking global organizations to reach their greatest potential.   

Selected finalists of the “Company of the Year for Employee Engagement” award demonstrated the most compelling and holistic approach to their strategy for engaging their workforce. Judges looked for varied engagement methods and metrics to find companies that have utilized multiple opportunities for employees to engage with their company and become more fulfilled in their work.

Winners will be announced at the Employee Engagement Conference on Wednesday, June 17, 2015 at Tribeca 360, located at 10 Desbrosses St., New York, NY 10013.
