The Printing Industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundation has awarded CRW Graphics of Pennsauken, NJ the Best Workplace in the Americas designation, Best of the Best 2007, for their exemplary human resources practices. Begun to specifically honor printing companies that provide a superior work environment, this year marks the eighth year of the Best Workplace in the Americas program.

A panel of highly respected HR professionals with decades of experience in the graphic arts industry reviewed the submissions. All of the winning companies actively show their employees that they care about their work environment, their personal goals and ambitions, as well as the needs of the company. Applicants were judged on eight criteria: Management Practices; Work Environment; Training and Development Opportunities; Financial Security; Workplace Health and Safety; Work-Life Balance; Recognition and Rewards; and Health and Wellness Programs. “It’s an honor to be recognized by the industry as one of only 17 companies of
our size nationwide that offers a superior workplace,” said Harriet Weiss, CEO.

Michael Makin, president and CEO of PIA/GATF, agrees. “Best of the Best winners routinely exhibit the highest commitment to success in many ways, but particularly through their employees.
