Fairview Park, OH — The Reserves Network, a regional staffing service for the office, industrial, professional and technical markets, has won its seventh NorthCoast 99 award, recognizing the company as one of the best workplaces in Northeast Ohio.

NorthCoast 99 is an annual recognition program that honors 99 great workplaces for top talent in Northeast Ohio. The program was developed and is presented by the Employers Resource Council (ERC). ERC is Northeast Ohio’s leading and largest professional organization dedicated to HR practices, programs and services. The program rates companies according to their policies and practices on seven core organizational characteristics: flexibility, opportunity, recognition, development, security, support and talent integrity.

The Reserves Network is the only staffing company to win the award seven times, and fewer than 25 businesses have been named to the list on seven or more occasions in the event's nineyear history.

The comprehensive NorthCoast 99 application can take up to 40 hours to complete, and also requires five top performers from each company to participate in an online survey about their workplaces. To be eligible, an organization must be at least three years old and employ at least 15 full-time equivalent employees in Northeast Ohio.

Amy Gerrity, president of The Reserves Network, says her company is very honored by the award. "Because we are in the staffing business we take great pride in this award. Everyday, we see how people are the most important part of any company so it's imperative that we provide a workplace that shows our appreciation for hard work."
