Aclaris Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ACRS), a dermatologist-led,
biopharmaceutical company focused on identifying, developing and
commercializing innovative and differentiated therapies to address
significant unmet needs in medical and aesthetic dermatology, has
been named one of the Best Places to Work in PA for 2017. The
awards program, created in 2000, is one of the first statewide
programs of its kind in the country. The program is a
public/private partnership between Team Pennsylvania Foundation,
the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development,
the Pennsylvania State Council of the Society for Human Resource
Management, and the Central Penn Business Journal.
“It is a great honor to be named one of the Best
Places to Work in Pennsylvania, and I’m pleased to share this
award with all of my colleagues who help make Aclaris an
exceptional company,” said Dr. Neal Walker, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Aclaris. “We have built an extraordinary
team of people who are committed to developing and commercializing
new medical and aesthetic dermatology treatment options for
patients with visible skin and hair conditions.”
This survey and awards program was designed to
identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in
Pennsylvania, who are benefiting the state's economy and its
workforce. Employers are categorized based upon the total number of
employees they have in the United States, 15 to 99 employees, 100
to 250 employees, or more than 250 employees.
To be considered for participation, companies had
to fulfill the following eligibility requirements:- Be a for-profit
or not-for-profit business- Be a publicly or privately held
business- Have a facility in Pennsylvania- Have at least 15
employees working in Pennsylvania- Be in business a minimum of one

Companies from across the state entered the
two-part process to determine the 100 Best Places to Work in PA.
The first part of this process was evaluating each nominated
company's workplace policies, practices, philosophies, systems and
demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25%
of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee
survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process
was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined
scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best
Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey
process.
