American Packaging Corporation wins Best Workplace in the Americas award

For the fifth time, American Packaging Corporation has been awarded the Best Workplace in the Americas designation “Best of the Best” 2012, for their exemplary human resources practices.

Begun to specifically honor printing companies that provide a superior work environment, this year marks the eleventh year of the Best Workplace in the Americas program.
Winning companies demonstrate their responsibility to provide a safe work environment, encourage personal goals and ambitions, promote wellness and life balance, as well as meet the objectives of the company.

Applicants were judged on eight criteria: Management Practices; Work Environment; Training and Development Opportunities; Financial Security; Workplace Health and Safety; Work-Life Balance; Recognition and Rewards; and Health and Wellness Programs.

“Receiving this award for the fifth year validates American Packaging’s commitment to its employees in providing a safe and reputable place to work,” said Peter B. Schottland, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The company’s dedication to our employees’ overall well-being allows us to attract and retain the best people in the industry.”

Michael Makin, president and CEO of Printing Industries of America, agrees. “Best of the Best winners routinely exhibit the highest commitment to success in many ways, but particularly through their employees. Congratulations to American Packaging.”
