We are excited to celebrate the extraordinary efforts of 100 companies who have set the standard for creating positive working environments.

As president of the Kentucky Chamber, I am pleased so many Kentucky employers hold such a strong commitment to their employees. I am especially pleased that 68 of the 100 companies named a “Best Places to Work” this year are members of the Kentucky Chamber.

From banks, to colleges, to health care facilities and manufactures, from all corners of the state, this year’s list of winners represent a broad cross-section of industries.

In order to make Kentucky’s economy thrive, we must be able to not only educate and employ Kentuckians here, but we also must attract those from out of state to want to work here. The Best Places program provides your company with a tool to measure workplace satisfaction each year.

The Kentucky Chamber is proud to offer the Best Places to Work in Kentucky program – it provides a perfect venue to celebrate the companies who are doing their part to make the Commonwealth a great place to live and work. We strive to do our part for Kentucky businesses year round in the halls of our Capitol and from our Frankfort headquarters.

The Kentucky Chamber works each day to unite business and advance Kentucky through advocacy, providing current economic data and business education programs.

We thank you for your participation in the Best Places initiative and congratulate you on your efforts!
