Research partner Workforce Research Group will conduct a survey of participating companies and announce the winners on May 22.

Award winners will receive their final rankings at the awards ceremony on May 22 at the Central Bank Center in Lexington. Rankings and in-depth interviews with the winners will also be published in Best Places to Work in Kentucky magazine.

Winners are chosen from three categories: small companies with 15-149 employees, medium companies with 150-499 employees, and large companies with more than 500 employees. The category is based on the number of U.S. employees, but only employees from Kentucky were surveyed.

The selection process is based on an assessment of the company’s employer policies and procedures and the results of an internal employee survey. The Workforce Research Group conducts the assessment and survey based on research and list selection.

All participating companies will receive feedback from the survey, enabling them to develop and implement strategies aimed at creating great workplaces and improving business performance.
