Vi Achieves 2021 Great Place To Work® Certification
Business
Vi recently announced that its 10
communities and corporate headquarters in Chicago have been certified as
great workplaces by Great Place to Work®.
As the global authority on company culture,
the organization determines its list each year through its proprietary Trust
Index™ employee experience survey. Led by independent analysts, the
certifications are based on employee responses regarding their workplace
experiences, happiness and overall satisfaction. To determine the 2021
honorees, Great Place to Work® surveyed Vi’s employees on issues, including how
trustworthy, caring and fair the company is in times of crises, employees’
physical, emotional and financial health, and the company’s broader community
impact. Particular attention was paid to how employees’ experiences varied
depending on their job role, gender, race/ethnicity, payroll status, and other
characteristics to ensure that the company is creating a great workplace for
all.
Vi’s level of employee satisfaction was
determined to be nearly 25 percent higher than the national average. Decades of
research have demonstrated that workplaces with high-trust cultures benefit
from higher levels of revenue, innovation, customer and patient satisfaction,
employee engagement, organizational agility, and more.
“After the challenges presented by the past
year, our team is honored and humbled to yet again earn this designation by
Great Place to Work®,” said Randy Richardson, president at Vi. “Vi is able to
deliver our brand commitment because of the hard work and dedication of our
passionate team members, who provide exceptional service and quality care day
in and day out. We do not take this honor for granted. Feedback from our Great
Place to Work survey renews our commitment to making Vi both a great workplace
and a premier senior living provider.”
To celebrate the company’s more than 3,000
dedicated employees across the country, Vi held an Employee Appreciation Week
from July 12–17, 2021.
Each of Vi’s 10 locations hosted celebrations for personnel throughout Employee Appreciation Week, unique to their team and community.
Recognized as a leader in employee
development, Vi offers employees a wide range of training
and development programs, including tuition reimbursement, free language
training, an array of company-paid certification courses, robust leadership development
programs as well as access to Vi’s online university, E-Campus.
Vi has received a variety of awards and
accolades in recognition of its corporate culture and commitment to learning
and development.
The company was recently honored in Chief Learning Officer magazine’s LearningElite and Training magazine’s Top 125.
