LRE Foundation Repair Part of Top Workplaces in Tampa Bay
BROOKSVILLE — LRE Foundation Repair was recently named one of Tampa Bay’s Top Workplaces 2013 by the Tampa Bay Times. Employees nominated their employers and were surveyed about several topics, including practices and policies that make these companies the top places to work.
In the Tampa Bay region, 100 leading employers were nominated by their employees. To be considered for participation, companies or government entities had to employ at least 50 workers in Florida and be at least a year old.
In the Small Business category (50 to 149 local employees), LRE Foundation Repair ranked 15th out of 50 local companies. The family-owned and operated company currently employs over 130 team members and is Florida's largest foundation repair company. In addition, LRE specializes in fire and water damage restoration services.
The Top Workplaces 2013 in Tampa Bay program was created by the Tampa Bay Times and WorkplaceDynamics.
The companies were ranked based on leadership, compensation and training, workplace flexibility, and diversity. The rankings were published on TampaBay.com, in the April 21 edition of the Tampa Bay Times and on April 22 in tbt*.
“What’s unique about this report is that it explains how these Tampa Bay companies are creating engaged work forces and productive work environments, even in tough times,” said Neil Brown, Times editor and vice president. “We give readers an inside look into these companies and they hear the stories directly from employees.”
