Business Wire
Porter Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PBIB), parent company of PBI Bank,
announced today that PBI Bank, Inc. was recently named as one of
the Best Places to Work in Kentucky for 2014 in the medium-sized
companies category. The awards program was created in 2005 and is a
project of the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, the Kentucky Society
for Human Resource Management (KYSHRM) and Best Companies
Group.
This statewide survey and awards program was designed to
identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in
Kentucky, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and
businesses.
To be considered for participation, companies had to fulfill the
following eligibility requirements:
- Have at least 15 employees working in
Kentucky;
- Be a for-profit or not-for-profit
business or government entity;
- Be a publicly or privately-held
business;
- Have a facility in the state of
Kentucky; and
- Must be in business a minimum of one
year.
Companies from across the state entered the two-part process to
determine the Best Places to Work in Kentucky. The first part
consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace
policies, practices, and demographics. This part of the
process was worth approximately 25 percent of the total
evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to
measure the employee experience, which was worth approximately 75
percent 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
in Kentucky, analyzed the data and used their expertise to
determine the final rankings.
“PBI Bank is honored to receive this distinction of being named
one of the best employers in the state,” said John T. Taylor, PBI
Bank President and CEO. “The success of our bank is dependent on
our most important asset, our employees, and we are committed to
providing an engaging workplace where integrity, teamwork and
service excellence is recognized and rewarded.”
PBI Bank will be recognized and honored at the Best Places to
Work in Kentucky 10th Annual Awards Dinner on Thursday, April 24,
2014 at Heritage Hall in the Lexington Convention Center. The final
rankings will be announced at the event. A magazine recognizing the
winners and their final rankings will be released for statewide
distribution at that time.
