For
companies to succeed in today's economic environment, employers
must hire and retain diverse workforces and provide a workplace
that offers a balance with work/life issues. On October 14, 2005,
the Evansville-Area Human Resource Association in conjunction with
the Workforce Investment Board, The Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana and Fifth Third Bank presented the Sixth
Annual Family Friendly and Diversity Practices Awards and Seminar.
The awards honored and recognized companies within the Tri-State
area that are leaders in developing
a workplace that embraces diversity and family friendly
practices and to share and promote best practices within our community.
The full-day seminar offered attendees the opportunity to learn
more about family friendly and diversity initiatives and to share
best practices. Local
organizations that provide services and/or products that support
family friendly/diversity initiatives were available to meet with
attendees at a vendor fair.
The EHRA would like to congratulate the companies that received
an award or were nominated for their leadership in providing diverse
and family-friendly work environments.
