Three Texas agencies make ’50 Best Companies’ list
Three independent insurance agencies were among the “50 Best Companies to Work for in Texas” honored at a luncheon hosted by the Texas Association of Business, Texas Monthly magazine and the Society for Human Resource Management-Texas State Council.
Higginbotham & Associates (ranked 10), Insurance & Bonds of Texas (23) and McQueary Henry Bowles Troy (27) are among the 50 companies selected by this new-to-Texas program managed by Best Companies Group. The multi-year initiative is designed to motivate companies to focus, measure and move their workplace environments towards excellence. Its goal is to raise the bar among the state’s employers and create excellence and employee satisfaction in the workplace that will attract talented people for years to come.
The selection process was based on an assessment of the company’s employee policies and procedures and the results of an internal employee survey. All participants receive an Assessment Findings Report to help them develop and implement plans to create a great workplace and continue to improve the performance of their business.
Winners are featured in the February issue of Texas Monthly and can be viewed online at www.texasmonthly.com/sections/best
