We’ve done it again … three years and counting! EDSI has been honored with a 2018 When Work Works Award for exemplary workplace practices. Sincere thanks goes out to our incredible team members … two-thirds of our score was based on a survey of our employees.
In applying for the award, EDSI was evaluated on factors associated with employee health, well-being and engagement: opportunities for learning; a culture of trust; work-life fit; supervisor support for work success; autonomy; and satisfaction with earnings, benefits and opportunities for advancement
The prestigious When Work Works Award is part of the Society for Human Resource Management’s (SHRM’s) When Work Works project, a national initiative that helps employers become more successful by transforming the way they view and adopt effective and flexible workplaces.
Congratulations to Katharine Marianacci, who was recently named 2018 Intern of the Year by the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce at the Third Annual Young Professionals Award Ceremony. Katharine interned as Human Service intern in EDSI’s Wilkes-Barre Office during the summers of 2017 and 2018.

EDSI was recently named as one of the 2018 Cool Places to Work in Michigan. This is the fifth year that our company has won this esteemed award! Out of 100 companies, EDSI ranked #37, rising up from #49 last year.
This statewide survey and awards program was designed in 2012 and is a project of Crain Content Studio, the marketing storytelling arm of Crain’s Detroit Business, and Best Companies Group. The award identifies, recognizes and honors the best places of employment in Michigan, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses. The 2018 Cool Places to Work in Michigan list is made up of 100 companies in three size categories: small (15-49 U.S. employees), medium (50-249 U.S. employees) and large (250+ U.S. employees).
To be considered for participation, companies had to fulfill the following eligibility requirements:
- Have at least 15 employees working in Michigan;
- Be a for-profit or not-for-profit business or government entity;
- Be a publicly or privately held business;
- Have a facility in the state of Michigan; and
- Must be in business a minimum of 1 year.
Companies from across the state entered the two-part process to determine the Cool Places to Work in Michigan. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final rankings. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Michigan and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.
Hear, hear: it’s our 8th year … of being named one of Metro Detroit’s 2018 Best and Brightest Companies to Work For®! EDSI, along with the other winning companies, will be recognized at the annual awards gala in September at the Detroit Marriott Renaissance Center.
This national program celebrates those companies that are making better business, creating richer lives and building a stronger community as a whole. This awards competition identifies and honors organizations that display a commitment to excellence in their human resource practices and employee enrichment. Organizations are assessed based on categories such as communication, work-life balance, employee education, diversity, recognition, retention and more.
Only companies that distinguish themselves as having the most innovative and thoughtful human resources approach can be bestowed this honor. Thank you to our outstanding employees who live our values of Show Up, Smile and Support … each and every day. Also, congrats to our fellow winners on achieving this distinction!
