Hiway has been named one of the Top 150 Workplaces in Minnesota by the Star Tribune. This is the seventh year in a row that Hiway has earned the distinction of being one of the state’s best employers. This year, Hiway ranked 27th among the midsized companies (150-499 employees).
Developed by the same team that compiles the 29-year-old Star Tribune Top 100 report of the best-performing public companies in Minnesota, Top Workplaces recognizes the most progressive companies in Minnesota by measuring employee engagement and satisfaction as well as overall organizational health. This year’s analysis included responses from over 76,000 employees at Minnesota public, private and nonprofit organizations.
Over the past several years, Hiway has made several moves to provide more for their associates, including adding 12 weeks of paid parental/medical leave and raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour for all positions. An active member of the St. Paul community, Hiway also encourages volunteerism by providing associates 12 hours of paid time per year to support causes important to them.
“This is a tremendous honor for Hiway and for all of our associates who make our workplace and our culture what it is,” said Hiway President Dave Boden. “It’s been a challenging spring in many ways, and our associates have proven their adaptability and resilience, continuing to find new ways to serve our members and our community. They’ve been the catalyst to creating a welcoming environment that supports and values everyone.”
