Business Development Resources (BDR), the training and business coaching authority for home services industry professionals, was recently named one of Seattle Business Magazine's Washington's Best Companies to Work For.

This annual program, created by Seattle Business Magazine and Best Companies Group, is to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in Washington who benefit the area's economy, workforce, and businesses.

"We're proud to be part of Washington's inspiring business community, and we'll continue to be a great place to work in 2023." To be considered for participation, companies had to have a facility in Washington state, have at least 15 employees working in eligible counties, and be in business for a minimum of one year.

Measuring employee experience

Companies across the state entered the two-part survey process to determine Washington's Companies to Work For. The first part evaluated each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems, and demographics.

The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. Best Companies Group managed Washington's overall registration and survey process, analyzed the data, and determined the final rankings. This process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation, and the combined scores determined the top companies and the final rankings.
