Belt Technologies Certified by Great Place to Work

AGAWAM — Belt Technologies, manufacturer of PureSteel custom metal belt conveyor solutions, has been Great Place to Work certified for the second year in a row.

Great Place to Work is a global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue and increased innovation. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Belt.

“We are excited to have again earned this designation, as we have an ongoing commitment to ensure our employees feel valued, safe, and engaged,” said Denis Gagnon Jr., CEO of Belt Technologies. “We earned high marks across the board. For example, 100% of our employees agreed that they were made to feel welcome when they joined us, a standard we want to uphold. We also received valuable feedback on areas where we can still improve.”

Great Place to Work certification recognizes employers that create outstanding employee experiences. Becoming certified is a two-step process that includes surveying employees and completing a questionnaire about the company’s workforce dynamics, policies, environmental stewardship, and community engagement.

In order to gain certification, a business needs to score a minimum of 65% on its evaluation. The average score for a company evaluation is 57%. Belt achieved a score of 93%.

“Great Place to Work certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of Global Recognition at Great Place to Work. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Belt Technologies stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”
