Arthur’s Employees Share Top Award for Ethics and Values
Arthur’s Senior Care is proud to be staffed by ACR Homes, which was honored in the 2018 Star Tribune Top Workplace survey with a special award for Ethics & Values. In addition, for the fifth year in a row, employee feedback through the 2018 Star Tribune Top Workplace survey resulted in ACR Homes being named one of the top five large workplaces in Minnesota.
Employees at 361 Minnesota companies participated in the annual Top Workplaces survey. The StarTribune engaged a research partner, Energage, to conduct the survey by gathering anonymous feedback on six key themes that impact workplace culture. All 924 employees of ACR Homes and Arthur’s received the survey last spring, including direct care staff, supervisors, nurses, office, and maintenance staff. The survey results give interesting insight into our workplace culture.
A Culture of Ethics at Our Core
Feedback from several employees pointed to our Core Values Statement that “all human life is intrinsically valuable and worthy of dignity and respect” as an example of the strong values in our workplace culture. Employees also commented on how inspiring it is to work for a company where excellence in client care is the main focus, where their coworkers’ standards are high, and where the focus is on doing what it takes to deliver high quality care. One employee wrote in the survey that our company “has incredible values when it comes to caring about the people that we support.” Another wrote, “It’s easy to feel like you are part of the team when you know that your values line up with the values of your company’s leadership.”
Arthur’s Clients Benefit from Our Great Workplace Culture
Employees indicated in the survey that they appreciate our positive workplace culture, and they like people like doing work that matters, with people who share similar high standards in care. One employee commented, “Whenever I leave after a shift I know that I made a difference in someone’s life. I love that my job is meaningful and enjoyable. I have amazing co-workers.”
