For the second year in a row, The Republic of Tea has been named as one of the best places to work by Outside Magazine. The Republic of Tea was ranked No. 70 out of 100 selected companies and is the only specialty tea company to receive the honor.
Outside’s “Best Places to Work” project celebrates the innovative companies setting a new standard for a healthy work-life balance. The list was compiled with the help of the Outdoor Industry Association and Best Companies Group. The yearlong selection process began with an outreach effort that identified a wide range of non-profit and for-profit organizations with at least 15 employees working in an office in the United States.
Participating companies were sent confidential employee-satisfaction surveys and employer-questionnaires to collect information about benefits, compensation, policies, job satisfaction, environmental initiatives, and community outreach programs. The experts at the Best Companies Group then analyzed the results and selected the companies that best enable employees to pursue active lifestyles while also supporting their social and environmental contributions.
This year’s “Best Places To Work” list will highlight not only the Top 100 companies, but will also spotlight those on the list that offer the best perks, including “Fitness-Friendly” companies, those with the most liberal “Flex Time” policies, the “Best Travel Perks”, and those with the “Best Office Culture.”
“We are honored to be named to Outside’s 'Best Places to Work' for a second year,” said Ron Rubin, CEO, The Republic of Tea. “We strive to enrich the lives of our employees (Ministers) by creating a work environment that supports a healthy lifestyle and provides educational opportunities and resources to achieve and maintain a balanced, fulfilling life. This important award validates the efforts we make to reach these objectives.”
"We're proud to publicize the efforts of these 100 companies," said Outside editor Christopher Keyes. "They each show a real commitment to creating active, healthy work environments and put a premium on innovative benefits. Year after year, Outside's Best Places to Work program demonstrates that America's most successful companies are the ones that consistently promote true work-life balance for their employees."
