Oatey Co. has been named a 2024 NorthCoast 99 award winner by ERC, the Employers Resource Council. The NorthCoast 99 award honors 99 great Northeast Ohio workplaces for top talent. This is the 14th time that Oatey has received the prestigious NorthCoast 99 award.
"Twenty-six years ago, ERC launched the NorthCoast 99 awards program and event to help our region become a prime destination for companies and high-performing individuals," said Samantha Marx, ERC's Director of Strategic Projects, who oversees the NorthCoast 99 program. "Beyond being a sought-after accolade, this yearlong research initiative offers employers valuable insights and data into policies and practices that successfully attract and retain top talent."
NorthCoast 99 winners participated in a rigorous application process that asked for detailed information on how their organization addresses top-performer attraction, development, and retention in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion; employee engagement and talent development; employee well-being; organizational strategy, policies, and benefits; talent attraction, acquisition, and onboarding; and total rewards.
“We are thrilled that Oatey has been recognized for a 14th time as a top workplace in Northeast Ohio,” said Dalithia Smith, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer at Oatey. “Oatey is a place where our associates truly matter, and this award reflects the exceptional talent we have at our organization. Thanks to every Oatey associate for making our company such a great place to work!”
